Thanks! Glad you enjoyed looking over it- that's exactly how I feel about xonsh. Having python in the shell feels great, but I'm always left feeling like I have a marriage of something I like with something I like less (not to hate on bash too much) rather than just the shell I want in the first place. Really cool idea about separate processes- I guess since the shell is its own thing, there's no reason you couldn't write an interpreter in a non-GIL language (like rust or c++) even if the commands where Python. That'd free you up to spawn subprocesses and shells to your heart's content!
