It looks cool, but pretty complicated (as shell script always seems to be in real application). I'll have to come back and see what I can come up with or replace using this though.

Good work (as far as I can see)!

Thank you, that's appreciated. I want it to not be complicated in use - but like anything new, there's always that wall of initial confusion. It's early days for all of it, and this is taking a very different approach with the shell: it treats it like a proper language. Arguably, one that needs much more discipline than first appears.

Everyone has a different learning style - perhaps the tutorial will help? Or just looking at a real use case - try bish-bosh at https://github.com/raphaelcohn/bish-bosh. Let me know if there's a better way of explaining it.

If there's enough folks interested, maybe we could run an interactive tutorial or IRC session?
