This is my exact plan. The point of GUSH is to have a totally
BASH-like interface, but with much more programming power.
For example: all builtins accept the `--help' option and `help
COMMAND' is just a builtin that runs `COMMAND --help'. Completion is
extended to command line options, so you can type `boot --he<TAB>',
and it will return `boot --help'.
With GO, I'll be able to do all these things, at the same time as I
isolate the features from the language syntax and UI. The same
primitives will be available under a Scheme-like syntax, for those who
prefer it (like me), or under a Perl-like syntax if there is enough
demand, etc.
OY> * GDB support in stage2_debug
Can you give a brief explanation of this idea? Do you mean something
like Mach's kdb, but in GRUB?
If so, then that feature (runtime object inspection) will be easily
integrated with GO, and we could support a GDB-like UI to make it
friendly for people to use.
