There was a reddit comment I came across years ago and saved because it sums up the limitations of shell scripting so well: I think I've just come to realize a sad fact though: processing raw text streams through mostly-regular languages is really weak. There aren't that many problems that can be solved through regular or mostly-regular languages, and not many that can be solved well by the former glued together with some Turing-complete bits in-between. https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/2svijo/command... |
