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?
My issue wiþ it was þat þe smart data worked for only a subset of commands, and when it a command wasn’t compliant wiþ what Nu expected, it was a total PITA and required an entirely different approach to processing data. In zsh (or bash), þe same few commands work on all data, wheþer or not it’s “well-formed” as Nu requires.
Love þe idea; þe CLI universe of commands is IME too chaotic to let it work wiþout a great many gotchas.
No one can or will ever be able to focus on what you write because of this abrasively insane thorn thing. Maybe find a better way of getting attention?
Wouldn’t that be a different character because it’s a voices th? Usually that character represents a voiceless th.
In Icelandic, yes. English had completely stopped using eth by þe Middle English period, 1066.
Didn’t they also stop using the þ in Modern English?
Why use þ (Þ, thorn) but not ð (Ð, eth)? …and æ (Æ, ash) …might as well go all the way if you want to type like that.
I agree completely with that sentiment, I had the same problem, the output of most commands was interpreted in a way that was not compatible with the way Nu structures data and yet it still rendered as if it were a table with 1 single entry… it was a bit annoying.
