What I'm worried about this is that it builds on shell precisely. So to debug it / understand how it behaves, you need to understand shell (I suppose bash for most people) + shellfire. bash is already full of pitfalls, I'm not very enthused of adding a layer on top. While it certainly helps when you know what you're doing / it works; it obscures the cause of some already obscure behaviour even further.

I also don't like the "framework" approach. I actually thought this would be actual "shell functions" to do all kinds of common shell tasks; a copy-paste library of sorts. I was actually pretty excited about that as it is something I see myself using on a regular basis.

But don't let my negativity bring anybody down, I'm sure it can be useful; and if it's useful for you, just use it and be happy.
