gollark: The formatting thing isn't exactly in shells as much as the infrastructure surrounding them.
gollark: Shells contain some very bee things like:- in-band signalling of formatting- excessive stringyness, poor data structures- poor error handling- lack of advanced constructs- bad modularitybut cool things like:- easy to call out to other utilities- highly concurrency- file descriptor manipulation
gollark: I meant this ironically. Interactive Python is actually a terrible shell replacement.
gollark: REPLs are highly.
