I've been trying nushell and words fail me. It's like it was made for actual humans to use! π€― π€― π€―
It even repeats the column headers at the end of the table if the output takes more than your screen...
Trying to think of how to do the same thing with
awk/grep/sort/whateveris giving me a headache. Actually just thinking aboutawkis giving me a headache. I think I might be allergic.I'm really curious, what's your favorite shell? Have you tried other shells than your distro's default one? Are you an awk wizard or do you run away very fast whenever it's mentioned?
That's basically how Powershell works.
*ducks*
Most bash fans Iβve known carve out an exception for powershell from their overall critique of windows. Personally, I think itβs not a fair comparison considering how god fucking awful everything else is in windows, but I do agree that itβs a decent shell.
This might be unpopular in Linux spaces but I consider Powershell for the most part well designed. I think its better suited to writing scripts than bash, but worse at being an interactive shell.
A worse interactive shell than bash? No way, I find PowerShell closer to fish for interactive use.
It's essentially an object oriented shell. It's actually pretty good. But yeah, error outputs are a pain to read.
And that's totally fine. Different tools for use cases. ππͺ
Yeah it was inspired by Powershell. But it also has syntax that isn't completely awful.
what-do-you-mean-awful-syntax ?
Ha-Ha -exactly
Doesn't look nearly as verbose either
