I wonder how these other shells work with the backticks and such in Perl/Ruby. Theoretically there is room for very cool interoperability but I wonder how it goes in practice and if any nice tools and patterns are being developed.
- phist_mcgee 4y agoSince this is nushell and perl and ruby are now starting to be considered 'old, is that so much of a problem?
- jrumbut 4y agoIt's a path to scaling. You can basically dump a shell script (I assume including nushell) into your .pl/.rb file with a little punctuation and then slowly refactor it to a language that can handle greater complexity.
