The chief benefit besides the searching, so far, is that you can use Py3k mixed with shell commands as the scripting language--so script in Python instead of bash.<div><br></div><div>When using Python for scripting, Python lines are indented by an extra tab (or four spaces) while shell-like commands are not indented. So:</div>
<div><br></div><div>cjsh> for index in range(10):</div><div>----> echo %(index)d</div><div>----></div><div>0</div><div>1</div><div>2</div><div>3</div><div>4</div><div>5</div><div>6</div><div>7</div><div>8</div>
<div>9</div><div><br></div><div>Echo could (and maybe should) be a built-in, but it isn't. The output is os.system()'ed to bash, which echoes based on a command that includes the value of a Python variable. The implementation is a bit crude, but it is reasonably powerful.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I have other things on the agenda, like making it able to run scripts and doing fuzzy matching, but for now those are the main two attractions.</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Oct 3, 2012 at 8:52 AM, Amirouche Boubekki <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:amirouche.boubekki@gmail.com" target="_blank">amirouche.boubekki@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
