    which
    , 
    ls
    , 
    git
    , etc. all use 
    os(...)
    , correct?

    Nobody uses 
    os
    yet, it's for users only, and brand new

    You're on top of this uh 🙂

    I haven't even written the doc for 
    os
    yet

    These are just commands: they're on the path so they will be run as a process

    os()
    is only for users who want to run some Kotlin code to alter command outputs

    I'm going to have to look at that too, it should respect potential aliasing.
  • c

    Depends which aliasing, Kash doesn't have a formal one yet
  • c

    and it doesn't parse any other aliasing you might have in place (
    .bashrc
    , ...)

    environment aliasing, like vim instead of vi, etc. Those are pretty standard.

    As you hinted, 
    os()
    might help here but I haven't looked into it

    e.g.
  • c

    cedric

    07/02/2019, 4:52 AM
    val vim = os("vi")  // this is too simple obviously since it needs $*

    Yeap, GMTA.

    Haha yes

    I'd probably write a 
    vim.kash.kts
  • c

    cedric

    07/02/2019, 4:54 AM
    I wrote a 
    findInJars.kash.kts
    to test that functionality

    Not documented yet but coming up
  • e

    I'm thinking of 
    aliases.kash.kts
    , using 
    alias
    to map env aliases to kash.
  • c

    cedric

    07/02/2019, 4:57 AM
    That would work. Note that I already automatically add 
    $ENV
    to each command run by Kash
  • c

    cedric

    07/02/2019, 4:57 AM
    Kash could do the same thing for aliases, although these are highly specific to the parent shell
  • e

    ethauvin

    07/02/2019, 4:58 AM
    Yeah, and I don't think all aliases should be converted.
  • e

    ethauvin

    07/02/2019, 4:58 AM
    But I'm thinking that anything in 
    /bin
    , 
    /usr/bin
    , etc. that has an alias should be converted.
  • c

    cedric

    07/02/2019, 4:59 AM
    But how do you find out aliases?
  • c

    cedric

    07/02/2019, 4:59 AM
    $ENV
    is easy, Java gives me this
  • e

    type 'alias' in your shell.

    mmmh
  • c

    Ok maybe, I'll have to try a 
    ProcessBuilder
    that launches 
    alias
