- jampekka 3y agoIt's a specialized version of that idea. Problem with libraries are that they tie the user to a specific language/OS. A cli tool eating and spitting ASCII/UTF-8 is about as cross platform as it gets.
- throw555chip 3y agoNo actually, it tries to be a kitchen sink and is the opposite of the UNIX concept of pipelines with small purpose built utilities.
