Written in Ruby. Oh dear. I would have at least expected it to be in Node, old skool kids these days.

On a more serious note, my shell of choice is written in C, runs fast, doesn't require a dogshit slow interpreter like Ruby to run, and frankly, I likes it that way.

Why not try it first before doing the knee-jerk hipster "ruby is slow zomgz guys" response.

If it gets big someone will reimplement it in c or some other more not "dogshit slow interpreter" (of which you are aware of rubinius and jruby right? they don't really interpret anymore) language.
