Correct me if my first impression was incorrect, but scanning through your scripts they all seemed like sub-kilobyte one-liners. Which, yeah, just use Shell for those and you'll be fine. To my mind, the parent post was referring to lengthier, more complicated scripts. Speaking as one who wrote and routinely maintained such scripts at one point, I cannot agree more with the sentiment that most if not all of them could and should have been written in Python or Ruby or some other scripting language instead.
