Turned out that one was, as you said, a totally unrelated toy language, nothing like this hurl.dev one.

Thanks! ICYMI: GoAWK [1] - A POSIX-compliant AWK interpreter written in Go, with CSV support.

Ah good to know, thank you! Meanwhile I found it, it was the awk from Debian 10 that lacked `length(array)`, see the related nvm pr [1].

Awk is really great, for those knowing nvm [1], I used awk to make `nvm ls-remote` run more than 10 times faster [2] by replacing the related shell script with around 60 lines of awk script [3], and I was quite happy with the improvement.

It's not really a one-liner, neither something big, but one can take that as an example regarding that awk is really not just for one-liners.

Meanwhile having `--csv` support is really nice. I'd also like to see things like a builtin `length` function to be standard.

Since you have Zhangye, you might also want to include Dunhuang (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunhuang)?

And there's Mogao Caves (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mogao_Caves) which can't be missed.

Indeed, the following should work with upcoming fish 3.4:

    echo "pwd: $(pwd)"

Nowadays there's the `--show-current` option:

    git branch --show-current

Wow, thank you for mentioning EmEditor, I used to keep it as a must-have app when used Windows, preferred it over UltraEdit, EditPlus etc, good memories. Nowadays it's all vscode though.

  -5/2 -> -2 (ok, rounds down)

Actually this is rounding up, to zero, as -2.5 < -2 < 0

TIL:

And bat is really a nice alternative to cat.

And those in Google are probably also kicking themselves for taking their eyes off the ball and allowing Oracle to acquire Sun

Anyone knows which ruby runtime GitHub uses? Ruby MRI or JRuby etc.?

The issue has only 46 comments at this moment because they have restricted the permission to comment, very nice. I thought there would be hundreds of, otherwise.

BTW, it sucks that existing comments cannot be voted or reacted with emojis, they should know this: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/monorail/issues/detail?id=4248

Have you managed to configure it to behave similar to iTerm 2 in terms of keyboard shortcuts? Would you please share your config?

One thing is, I don't get its layout, is it possible to create a vertical/horizontal split like what (shift+)cmd+d does in iTerm 2?

Sourcegraph used to be an online vscode, simply the coolest back then, but seems no more, they suddenly changed direction, possibly due to conflict of interests with Microsoft?
