- vthriller 8y agoPython feels way too cumbersome for day to day use, unless you do a lot of data crunching. There are bash/python hybrids like [0], but good luck getting them on some legacy production server that still runs distro from 8 years ago, or more modern but isolated server, or... There are (were?) also some language quirks that I can't remember because it's been a while since I last tried xonsh. [0] https://xon.sh https://xon.sh (EDIT: changed URL from an outdated one.)
- claudiawerner 8y agoI've switched to Perl (and Perl 6) which seem to be better suited.
- lolc 8y agoWhen it comes to scripting, I do prefer Python over Bash.
