interesting. I've actually already written a lot of the functionality I see here as bash (and other) functions, lol (things like log, filter, debug, retry, repeat, map, fetch (a URL, with retry)... etc.). (things like: enumeration functions, table pretty-printing, etc.)

  Hi. Author here. > I've actually already written a lot of the functionality I see here as bash (and other) functions That's exactly the reason these are part of stdlib. No reason for everybody to reimplemnt these with slight variations and copy it around.

    Agreed, and good job with the tooling then!

Thanks for the kind words. I phrase it as "fully fledged programming language with domain specific facilities". Hope it makes sense.
