sh VS tkterminal

I usually replace shell scripts with python (using sh module: https://amoffat.github.io/sh/ for calling other scripts/programs).

> sh relies on various Unix system calls and only works on Unix-like operating systems - Linux, macOS, BSDs etc. Specifically, Windows is not supported.

You can even run interpreted languages as a shell. See plumbum or sh for ways to make it a more comfortable shell and ipython for a better version of the shell.

100% agree. There are some libraries like https://amoffat.github.io/sh/ that aim to make that easier, but they always have some quirks that, funnily enough, are often the corner cases you were hitting in your complicated Bash script in the first place.

Another way to make Python scripts nicer is to use https://github.com/amoffat/sh
