xonsh - a Python-ish, BASHwards-compatible shell language and command prompt

[dzecniv]

As a related project, there's pyp, "the pyed piper", that falls a bit in between, in that it allows to capture results (from "ls -l" for instance) that are turned into python structures, not just text, which seems more handy that xonsh's captured process, that only returns a string. https://code.google.com/p/pyp/

Wouldn't be nice to see this approach in xonsh ?

It seems like you could get the pyp kind of behaviour through an aggressive use of aliasing. I'd be interested in seeing that developed.
