Your vision sound much closer to what I was hoping Rush would be. I don't think it is bad form at all to mention it.
Not sure if this exists in Bash at the moment in the various/terminals and consoles but a searchable history of the commands I've run would be handy. Also, some easy way to get command history in segments (maybe allowing me to comment my command history and pull everything from one comment marker to the next) so I can make a repeatable shell script out of the correct set of commands once I get the commands right.
As another idea to play with, if there is a way (probably using github) to index shell recipes others have made and look them up on the command line, that could be fun. So I could do "urchin search 'postgres 9 snow leopard' and grab someone else's command recipe to build postgres if one is out there.

- gfunk911 16y agoHeh, I have the same story. Messaged both of you on Github, we should team up. https://github.com/mharris717/lsl https://github.com/mharris717/lsl
- Spakman 16y agoNice one - I'm glad I'm not the only one where this type of shell sounds like a good idea! I'd definitely like some clever types of history management. I've not looked too closely at those facilities in other shells (I would guess some of them have some cool ideas), but it sounds like we can certainly come up with some more! I'm going to quickly lose track of this thread if I'm not careful. Do you use GitHub? Can you contact me there so we can stay in touch more easily, please?
