Post #1727507

I love Bash. I used to write tons of Bash. There is a lot of Bash in my life, even to this day. But here's my life now: * Bash holds some stuff together (small stuff: usually setting variables, aliases, and/or piping together a few CLI tools. See https://github.com/wolf/dotfiles/tree/main/shells/dot-config/shells/topics for examples) * Zsh is good at doing stuff when I type, so that's my login shell * If I have to do something interesting, why not just a Python script? In modern times, with a `uv` shebang line and self-specified dependencies ... the only externally visible additional requirement is `uv` itself (you don't even need Python). Just like a shell-based answer: you end up with a single stand-alone file I'm not going to argue about "but you have to install `uv`". You do you. #Bash #Zsh #Python #uv #Dotfiles
