NGS: Next Generation Unix Shell
I&#x27;m sure we can all agree that the current state of shells needs some work, but I don&#x27;t think inventing a new one is the right solution. I&#x27;m a huge fan of the fish shell, but in the real world, it never seems to be installed across the farm, and convincing the older SysAdmins to install it is more trouble than it&#x27;s worth.<p>We should be focusing on saner bash defaults, since it&#x27;s the most common shell in use. We shouldn&#x27;t have to remember these large list of gotchas, and pitfalls that shouldn&#x27;t be there in the first place. A few people out there are trying to recreate common utilities such as ls or cp, and while I welcome the change, I feel it should be part of the actual gnu coreutils package, and not a new project: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bsago.me&#x2F;exa&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;bsago.me&#x2F;exa&#x2F;</a>
