i really don't get all the bash hate, like it's the shells fault if you inherit crap admin scripts written by a idiot. in the linux distro dev world all kinds of coll things are implemented as bash scripts

look if you really need some kind of complex structure you can make bash scripts that parse & generate json something else that would be useful: a pair of tools that parses XML into xpath/value pairs for stream manipulation and then recomposes it Gazpacho fucked around with this message at 04:49 on Aug 20, 2016 |

no wait, how about a tool that takes an XML file and spits it out into a corresponding directory structure. and vice versa

i never used it but it was created back when microsoft wanted to keep a unix on the desktop option ready just in case the market went that way. it certainly wasn't designed to embrace open sores that didn't fit with ballmer's strategy (partly guided by the antitrust fiasco) of walling off microsoft's products from everything that wasn't microsoft
