I find it's a little too good.

I'm also thinking of rewriting some of the little tools I use so they
work relatively well whether I'm on Linux or Windows or Plan 9 (much
like Dan missing 'find') and I don't care for bash as much as I used to.
  I like rxvt on Windows (when I'm stuck on Windows) because X-style
copy & paste is hard for me to unlearn (I always want to stop and read
the menus in rio/9term, and I reflexively try to use the history when
I'm busy), and it just seems natural to want to replace bash with rc so
I can just keep copying & pasting my way through life.

(No original thought here.  Move along.)

-Jack
