I hear you, and I have tried it, but the commands feel gratuitously different to me.
Also they squandered the opportunity to make the output interactive like with the Lisp machines. That would also have helped smooth the learning curve.
- buildartefact 3y agoThe worst part of it is they aliased a bunch of common posix command names to their power shell equivalents but then they have different flags or semantics. Works fine until it trips you up destructively.
- Tabular-Iceberg 3y agoThey even made their own broken curl, which to me is straight up trademark infringement (ethically speaking at least, IANAL) Making alternative implementations of the core utilities is only customary, but the curl name is is directly tied to the reputation of Daniel Stenberg, which is one of exceptional skill, integrity and attention to quality and security.
