punkshell - an alternative Tcl Shell
BSD license
2023-08 Note: this is alpha level software and still highly experimental.
Features
- default ansi color output - toggle with 'colour on' and 'colour off'
- experimental functional language features. (will not be performant until more work is done on script compilation)
e.g
var_pipe_output.= var_list.= list a b c |> string toupper - easy execution of externals commands with return of stdout, stderr and the exitcode of the process
run <comand> ...(return exitcode of process - and allows process writes to stderr/stdout to appear in console as they occur)runout <command> ...(return stdout of process - no output until completion)runerr <command> ...(return stderr of process - no output until completion)runx <command> ...(return a dict of stdout stderr exitcode - no output until completion)
very unripe parts:
- commandline options - in need of urgent work to document and lock down specifics - in particular: punkshell somescript.tcl needs a fix to emit errors.
- shellfilter - api is clumsy
- scriptlib - will likely be reorganised/pruned significantly
