I improved the meme
As much as I may not like Windows, PowerShell is pretty stupidly powerful. There's a reason why people try to replicate some of its functionality or concepts.

Nushell: Introduction to a New Kind of Shell
Speaking of non-POSIX shells, I stumbled upon this last week:
https://github.com/letoram/cat9
https://arcan-fe.com/2022/10/15/whipping-up-a-new-shell-lash...
You might be interested in Cat9, https://github.com/letoram/cat9
It's another reimagination of a shell, but built around asynchronous jobs

Shh: Simple Shell Scripting from Haskell
Those of you who use (or used) this as your shell: care to share your experience?
It seems a lot less full-featured than https://xon.sh/, but maybe you don't need a lot of bells and whistles for regular usage. I mostly run build, execute, and install commands.
I'm somewhat enticed at the possibility of being able to wrap common executables into forms that are typed (like nushell or elvish) and manipulate them in a way that leverages the type checker.

Marcel the Shell
In that case, is it even more similar to xonsh?
> Marcel pipes python values in streams
That's indeed much better, all those untyped strings in shells in a bad old design
Though hopefully xonsh will implement this as well https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/issues/3967

fish-shell: the user-friendly command-line shell
Not to hijack, but also consider xonsh[1]. It's Python based, and all your scripts can be Python (or hybrid-Python). I've been using it for both Windows and Linux for over 5 years.

Lua as a Bash alternative
Better than PowerShell, but not bash-wards compatible makes it not a great choice for me. Waiting for Python12 and going to try xonsh again. Python native and bash-wards compatible 🤯

Microsoft rewriting core Windows libraries in Rust
I've been eyeing https://xon.sh/ (haven't written much in it though), as it seems to solve my biggest issue when writing scripts in python - the unwieldiness of calling external programs and piping their results.

Pythoneers here, what are some of the best python tricks you guys use when progrmming with python
Xonsh. It's like having your shell extended with Python. One-liners are a lot like normal shell, but for anything complicated, Bash is not really a sane language.
