YAML: The Norway Problem (2022)
I can't tell if it's irony or not given the sentiment in this thread, but that is not a declaration of a multiline Description field, that's a field of User named "Description:>-" that happens to be missing its trailing ":"
The trailing ‘:’ was there right after the ‘n’.
Examples of this syntax:
https://github.com/lmorg/murex/blob/master/builtins/core/arr...
I do agree it’s a bit of a kludge. But if you want data types and unquoted strings then anything you do to the syntax to denote strings over other data types then becomes a bit of a kludge.
> Seeing that used systemically, versus just for "risky" fields makes me want to draw attention to the fantastic remarshal tool[1], which offers a "--yaml-style >" (and "|" and the rest) which will render yaml fields quoted as one wishes
I don’t really understand what you’re alluding to here.

Bunster: Compile bash scripts to self contained executables
I have authored a shell in Go and while it doesn’t aim to replace coreutils, it does have a decent number of builtins as part of its application.
So in theory I could build a feature that allows you to ship a self contained executable like you’ve described.
If this is something you’re genuinely interested in and my shell has the right kind of ergonomics for you, then feel free to leave a feature request:

TomWright/dasel: Select, put and delete data from JSON, TOML, YAML, XML and CSV
Personally I think this is a problem better spent by fixing the shell. There’s a few alt shells out there now, Nushell, Elvish plus the one I help maintain, Murex (https://murex.rocks).
I’m obviously going to biased here, but it’s definitely worth your time checking out some alt shells.
