Ideas

This is a page used to list various features and ideas for additional functionality to be added, it includes notes/thoughts on how to implement the feature both in terms of functionality and in terms of the language interface.

Piping

Being able to pipe commands into each other, this would also mean providing a set of common replacements for commands that can be used to consume these piped in values such as grep or cut among others. This should ideally be used with a command that produces a generator rather than dump out the result when all of the data has been gathered. Then the generated output could be tied as input for the consuming functions. A pipe consumer should produce a function based on the arguments given that then takes a generator and returns a generator, which creates data based on the output.

If the root function does not return a generator, the piping should still work (this is how it works for things like uniq and sort in the shell).
