Hiram Chirino commented on FELIX-1325:
--------------------------------------
Awesome.. from you comments and the issues you've opened up against the RFC, it
seems we are in agreement that the osgi shell should be familiar to unix shell
dudes.
How often do they review the RFC feedback and accept/reject proposals?
It doesn't really operate smoothly like this, unfortunately. Right now,
the finalization of the R4.2 specs are consuming most of the cycles of
OSGi Alliance members and I don't think the shell is necessarily
targeted for this release. So, we might not hear too much right now, but
I will try to bug people.

gogo doesn't report a command not found error unless an argument is supplied

But on related note... to the gogo developers: I would have expected a
command not found error when you type in a command that's not found. This
seems to work fine if you pass an argument to a command. It this a
'feature' or a bug?
This is a 'feature', in that an undefined command silently returns itself,
rather than an error.
This is so that:
x = hello
works; otherwise the assignment would fail, with a command not found error.
Note: that
x = hello world
will actually evaluate the 'hello' command with 'world' as an argument.
x = "hello world"
tries to evaulate the 'hello world' command, which probably doesn't exist, so
it falls back to returning the value, rather than unknown command.
I think this can be simply resolved by avoiding re-evaluating an assignment
with a single argument.
This will mean that
x = hello
works as it does currently, but that
hello
will fail with 'unknown command', rather than simply return itself.
