Maintenance status of this project

[sharkdp]

I am not using this project actively myself. I still like the general idea, but I also think this project has a few limitations (e.g. #19) which I am not sure how to solve. In the meantime, there are also other projects like https://www.nushell.sh/ that aim in a similar direction.

Maintenance of this project is therefore also put on hold. If someone wants to take over maintainership of this project, please let me know.

wow, i read the listing on pypi.org, and watched the asciinema clip, and am amazed and came here to say thank u.

• yes, there is nushell.org for sure, but it feels way tooooo cumbersome to use as it too often results in nested tables and all...

• is issue #19 the only one or are there other issues too? or like maybe any paper cuts u felt?

• as on using nushell, i felt i should rework on some cli improvements which work with existing unix shell and with this tool, u've pretty come far already, so, i'd like to take ur feedback and see if i can do smth about those.

• i have searched for issues opened by u author:sharkdp, but still anything which is like more prominent like u right away mentioned #19

As far as I remember, that was the main thing that made me think that this is not (yet) the right solution. If you'd like to play with this, please go ahead! I will probably not come back to this unless there are radically new ideas regarding #19. I'm afraid it's not solvable without any hacks. That is, unless you completely change the way a shell works. Which is what Nushell already does.

ahh nushell - as good as it is for linear works, if even one job becomes nested tables, it sucks.
