    PS: You can see an example of scdoc sources here:

    ⌘ https://github.com/kseistrup/timestamp/tree/master/src

    The scdocs havde the extension .md because Microsoft Github thinks .sc is SuperCollider files, whatever that is. The .1 files are “compiled” from the .1.md sources.

    Not impressed by shell incantations. What would sell such a tool to me is a feature to replace those with new and more intuitive syntax.

    Holding on to how things are done in the shell is not a thing to be proud of. I think a lot of us around here stopped counting the times we got tripped by globbing, forgetting or misplacing one special character in a ${} block, or quoting.

    Let those monstrosities die already. Please.

    There's this tool -- https://github.com/ejholmes/walk -- that is pretty good and I liked it but dropped it for the same reasons: it leaves the heavy lifting to you and it depends on your mastery in the black arts.

    Now obviously I'm not managing huge projects but nowadays https://github.com/casey/just serves me just fine for everything I need.
