This 3-letter name is already taken [0], might be worth at least considering a different one.<p>It looks like this probably qualifies as a Show HN as well, if you can edit the title.<p>What are your future plans for the project? Are you using it regularly?<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;google&#x2F;szl" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;google&#x2F;szl</a>

Why does every command start with a &quot;$&quot;?

I cannot find the actual differences to Tcl?

Fundamentally it is more like tcl (function chaining) than like bash (process chaining), where process pipelining is the central operation, and where functions and programs are equivalent. In that sense, it has mostly the advantages but also the inconveniences of tcl, javascript and similar non-shell scripting languages. My opinion is that they have quite missed the ball in bash on non-nestable arrays when they introduced them quite recently, but besides that, bash is still pretty much my favourite tool.
