I really like this one, most certainly one would use it to build specialized bash libraries that wraps all the ugly stuff. Like a speedy sqlite3 bash library that keeps a database connection open and you can build up transactions by multiple bash commands, it would be a nice alternative to calling sqlite3 multiple times or building a huge sql statement and then calling it once.

I went to school with Chet in the late 80's and never knew about this feature until today. Looks like fun.
