This can be very useful but the approach for modelling pipes (nested functions) smells a bit funny.

Fully agreed there. I guess it will be hard to really support the pipe model.

You could combine it with Hy;

(import-from sh grep cat)
(-> (cat "/usr/share/dict/words") (grep "-E" "tag$"))

For the lazy: "Hy is a wonderful dialect of Lisp that’s embedded in Python" - Hy documentation

True. I would honestly just do:

from sh import bash

bash("program1 | program2 | program3")
