Haha! Yeah, I definitely don't mean to imply that the UX of these scripts couldn't be improved, just that these are some bits of functionality that I've found useful, and some very simple ways I've found to implement them that nevertheless worked pretty well. And, maybe as importantly, it may not be hard to have better UX than 25 lines of shell scripts, but it's even easier to have worse UX, so this is kind of the minimum bar for acceptability.
Yeah, there was zero implication about UX on my part though. Instead of just dismissing it with a: "I can do that in 30 lines of Python", you just delivered a solution that works for you and can be built upon by others. Good job, praiseworthy IMHO.
