I’ve been trying nushell and words fail me. It’s like it was made for actual humans to use! 🤯 🤯 🤯

It even repeats the column headers at the end of the table if the output takes more than your screen…

Trying to think of how to do the same thing with awk/grep/sort/whatever is giving me a headache. Actually just thinking about awk is giving me a headache. I think I might be allergic.

I’m really curious, what’s your favorite shell? Have you tried other shells than your distro’s default one? Are you an awk wizard or do you run away very fast whenever it’s mentioned?

    Hm. That sounds delightful. I do think once your script hits a not one liner level of complexity, python is a logical next step.

    Does it provide any useful stuff to Python itself? Would I like, derive any benefit to writing a script in xonsh over pure python?
