The latest release has a package manager for plugins, so hopefully we'll see more support for remote stuff through that route.
PowerShell has some great ideas, but it seems doomed to mostly be a quirk of Windows at this point. I'd really love to see a more modern shell than bash get adoption across the industry.
- geophile 8y agoHadn't heard about Elvish, thanks for the reference. I've thought about a new version of osh, making it less of a command-line utility, and more of a shell. What do you think would be the main properties of a "more modern shell"? Do you think it is OK if this shell drags in a Python interpreter?
