i tried to swap from fish to zsh and just the insane amount of package managers was enough to turn me away

and generally you can get around POSIX compliance stuff by learning more about fish or just dipping into bash when you need to

It looks sweet. I think my opinions are pretty niche though, I actually quite like PowerShell when I'm suffering through Windows 🙈

Okay sorry but you are objectively wrong there

🐒

Object pipeline is 🚀

Thats what I hear, that the logic works super well

Also memory usage is ⏫

the syntax for me feels too alien

Got any good refs on how to get comfy with it? I use a windows PC all the time but I just use WSL to do day to day stuff

It's worth a play, PowerShell Core is pretty well packaged for macOS. There are some nice shortcuts when you get into it (ForEach-Object can just be %, Where-Object has a ? alias, you can usually omit the $_.Prop and just specify the property)

Is there a rationale for the caps?

just curious

Honestly the help is awesome, things are very discoverable. Get-Help -Noun/-Verb are invaluable, and Get-Help Get-Help is actually worth reading

They're optional, and tab completion will fix them

gotchya

i should give it a crack

i know some people who love elvish

and they are powershellers

The weird irritations for me are things like rm -rf, which in PowerShell has to be written rm -recurse -force. It will match args if they uniquely identify something, but the tab completion is no match for the shorthand syntax in a traditional shell

Yeah elvish looks like a great middle ground

Oh, and which vars can be accepted on the pipeline gets a bit messy with complicated cmdlets (fancy functions) that have multiple parameter sets (kinda like subcommands)

Another solution to the workspace thing is to use the vscode extension project manager and store a dendron project and then you can quickly open it from within code 🙂

Nice one, thanks 🙂

I do this because I tend to have vscode open every day anyway haha

Ha yep, im a chronic closer. When I finish what I set out to do I wipe the applications so the next thing is clean

Yeah I find closing things clears my mind too so I try to do it at the end of every day if I can

heh, i'm kind of the opposite. i tend to leave everything open and only close programs when I need to upgrade my computer for a security patch. i do close all tabs at the end of the day though

Hmm thought I found a dendron bug but when trying other markdown editors it seems to occur with those too
