is there any point to messing around with my shell beyond just installing and switching to fish?
zsh is just superior
just use bash like a sane person
>>107741358>>107741374tries both those and they got no/inferior auto completion/file browsing
>>107741389fish is good and the haters don't understand it. stay with it, king
eshell mogs
>>107741182What's the point of this? I have always just used whatever the default shell on my operating system happens to be (ksh, zsh or bash).
>>107741182inferior to nushellunfortunately nushell has its own issues
>>107741528it just werks, doesnt waste your time
>>107741679i tried it just nowi do like some features but i hate how it doesnt autocomplete for commands i never entered before and doesnt highlight if the current command is a valid executable on the $PATH or its missing while fish does this.
>>107741182no, fish just werksbut we should aspire to stop using shell at all
>>107742133use what then how do i run programs and navigate the file system
>>107741182fish is cool, it doesn't need a quatrotrillion extentions to have some advanced features
>>107741389What's up with the little icon things and the working directory path on the prompt?
>>107742141>Run programs Click on its icon or use a dash/search functionality and hit enter>Navigate file systemA file explorer?
>>107741807>reads your mindi wish it worked like thatis there something that actually suggests inline like vs code copilot?
Shells are such outdated garbage. Unix has completely ruined how shells work and what users expect from shell commands.1. The syntax of the arguments passed to a command are left up to that command. Retarded.2. The only data type you can pass a command is a string. Retarded.3. Shell scripting languages are hot garbage nobody asked for.4. If you're going to have an interpreted language with a REPL, the king is the Lisp family with meta programming support.5. We shouldn't be editing plain text anymore. This isn't the stone age. The shell REPL should be a syntax tree editor, then it won't matter what visual style you use to express the syntax (parentheses, whitespace, indentation, semicolons, etc)
