Bashing the Bash – Replacing Shell Scripts with Python
I wrote this to simplify just that for my own tools; the subprocess module that comes with the batteries has a very general interface, i think that it is a bit complex for a quick script.

https://pypi.org/project/subb/
Python doesn't have the problem of shell scripting language, it doesn't get impractical, as the program is getting more complex. In bash you have arrays, and even maps, but these aren't pretty. Also the shell scripting language is being evaluated by an parse tree/AST interpreter, that's significantly slower than even python, in it's byte code interpreted form.
My objective was to get an abstraction, for a one line process run and extraction of the result, similar to what we had in Perl5 with the system library function. https://perldoc.perl.org/functions/system
Also the shell is impractical, when it comes to slightly more complex programs. There is a limit on what you can do with pipes. Maybe that's the reason why perl is that flexible, as they tried to bridge both realms: Perl had to be useful as a replacement for the quick shell like script, and to be useful as a general purpose programming language.

Should you add screenshots to documentation?
The Textual project has a lot of screenshots in its documentation. These screenshots are built with the docs, so they are always up to date.

PysimpleGUI
Textual[0] does this for CLI apps. That’s not for full GUI apps, but it’s very DOM-like, uses CSS selectors, etc. and a cool option when it meets your needs.

Ask HN: Why Did Python Win?

And not the era of Textual (https://textual.textualize.io/) is here, python may get the spotlight even more.
