lish [[--live] | [filename]]

You can use --live argument to make it evaluate as you type, or give a file to execute.

/!\ Warning

With the --live argument: As the shell input is auto-processed every second, be carefull to what you type in. This can lead to various errors and can make your filesystem messy if you don't handle it carefully.

Exemples

# Useless. Here pwd! returns an Array so we take first item
ls head pwd!

# Equals
ls pwd!0

# Get every filenames with length > 10
ls! |> filter (.length > 10)

# Get file name of files that contain 'require'
grep <[-rn require .]>
  |> map split(\:) >> (.0)
  |> unique

# Get every lines that have 'error' in /var/log
ls-path \/var/log
  |> filter is-file
  |> map grep-file \error

Features

• Livescript evaluation
• Live output (Evaluation as you type)
• Each binary in $PATH is wrapped (ls, cat, head, ...)
  • Their output are Arrays so you can chain them

      ls! |> filter (.length > 10)

• You can pass them an array to make it easy

      grep <[-rn console.log .]>

• Preloaded prelude-ls and fs
• fs function are pre-curryfied
