I had a similar thought when I first looked at it, but then I thought about my browser history and URL bar. It is sort of a lot of work to open files to write scripts, keep them organized, and make them accessible just to make some commands simpler to run. I wrote https://github.com/ionrock/we for this very reason. I moved most args to env vars and made loading different env vars easily via files. Maybe the history is a better way to make these things reproducible and useful by avoiding the redirection necessary by scripts?

While I agree it may not work with everyone's workflow, maybe it could be a powerful change to folks workflow. I'm going to try it out and see for myself!
