So cool! I'd never thought about a spreadsheet interface for the shell, but it makes total sense. The other demos (a little more than halfway down the page) are amazing too:

There’s some seriously impressive work that’s gone into that shell

Brings back memories of Lotus 123

This reminds me of using smalltalk where everything is an object and output can be piped in to any structure that can be programmed

this looks really great

I need to follow this more closely. I tried installing cat9 (from them as well) and it didn't work out on nixos. Might take another stab at it

i am surprised emacs doesn't have this already emacs seems more like the right place for this

that being said, i think the spreadsheet being a separate command line tool make more sense, i dont understand why integrate it into the shell

nushell or pwsh, might make use of a spreadsheet view, since they pass or stream objects not text , but still the spreadsheet should be a separate program

A machine learning program walks into a bar. (loss .999) A machine learning program walks into a bar. (loss .625) A machine learning program ducks a bar. (loss .482)

re-inventing the shell, not the wheel. love it!
