[forge-users] How do I run Forge shell from the code ?

[Koen Aers]

It's software… With the correct amount of indirections, everything is possible ;-)

But I think it should probably be not too difficult.

Cheers,
Koen

"Run in Forge Console", so that you could try out any application in the Forge terminal. This would obviously let you run Forge sources as well (E.g. Running the Bootstrap class in the Forge Console would give you the same result as running the Forge Console and starting Forge via the green button.
