Perhaps I should have clarified and added some more nuance. If the vast majority of the classes you write are, by design, intended to be directly run from the command line as their primary mode of execution, another language may be better-suited to what, to me, would sound like shell operations. Groovy, Python, or others may prove more concise and maintainable in such circumstance.
