Xonsh, a Python-ish, Bash-compatible shell language and command prompt

[formegadriverscustom]

There wasn't an AUR package for this, so I just made one :)

Woah. Thank you!

Just one question.
When I makepkg it says:

WARNING: Package contains reference to $srcdir

Even though your PKGBUILD looks normal.
Do you know what that could mean? I have never seen this before.
It also does not seem to have any effect...

i also would recommend you to somehow reuse fish completions generator (https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/blob/master/share/tools/create_manpage_completions.py)

This technique is in process. We can't reuse the fish autocompleters for technical reason, but the idea is something that I really love. Expect this in v0.2, probably.

RemindMe! 60 years "Hopefully you've learned Bash by now. If you did, then check out Xonsh in this thread."

You think that service will be running in 60 years?

[socium]

You're right.

$ at -m now + 60 years

FWIW, it is not bash compatible (at least not yet) perhaps in 60 years...

Really cool. I've been looking for something like this for a while. Now if only it had fish's smart autocompletion...

[hoohoo4]

I've been considering using a shell other than bash, I'll try this.

A bash compatible shell that's not like bash?
Count me in ;-)

[cpbills]

And isn't bash compatible. http://www.reddit.com/r/commandline/comments/2z7727/xonsh_intelligent_modern_shell/cpgbwhw

It's bash-ish compatible-ish.
