Lol. One of good cross platform example is Calibre [1], built with Python and Qt. And it’s the only one I carried with me from Windows XP/10 to macOS, through Linux. Another is Sublime Text. [1]: https://calibre-ebook.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 19 days ago

Kobos[1] and Pocketbooks[2] are a lot more open than Kindles. AFAIK you can transfer .epub files into both devices and these epubs are perfectly readable via the stock OS. If for some reason you find the stock proprietary OS lacking, you can install an open source one like KOreader [3] or Plato[4] Of course you want a good way of organizing epubs pdfs mobi, and like has already been mentioned Calibre[5] is a great... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

One of their exciting ideas is using code as data in a somewhat lisp-like manner to allow function... - Source: Hacker News / 16 days ago
(author here) Yeah you just repeated what https://oilshell.org/ is You'd want to be able to go $NEWSH my-bash-script.sh and it should just work. $NEWSH my-newsh-script.nsh should also work, obviously.- Source: Hacker News / 5 months agoosh my-bash-script.sh # works, it's the most bash-compatible shell by a mile.
> I know how and love to write in bash. But oh god was it painful to learn This is very well said :) > Sad that there's nothing established to take its place (Perl is read-only, python is not good enough as unix glue, everything else is too obscure).

In our fork for https://oilshell.org/ , and it made a lot more sense to people. It's funny how "sticky" syntax is -- because two contributors ALSO read * as "pointer" !
