We should stop using Bash, and use TypeScript instead.

Bash is terrible.

well this shell is just broken

  > ls -al
  <repl>.ts:4:1 - error TS2304: Cannot find name 'ls'.
  
  4 ls -al
    ~~
  <repl>.ts:4:5 - error TS2304: Cannot find name 'al'.
  
  4 ls -al
        ~~

Easy...

    $`ls -al`

or

    ls('al')

And, transpile shortcut strings on-the-fly to TS code:

    ls({
      all: true,
      oneEntryPerLine: true,
    })
