Good ideas, I added explanations for the shorthands: https://github.com/egonk/sc/commit/257d48f5ba187082ffb6a9b8b9d326eca26cb787
W or Wrap comes from the classic errors.Wrap (https://github.com/pkg/errors) Long forms might be added in a different package in the future (like github.com/egonk/sc/long/sc) because short form is specifically designed to work with dot imports. I am not sure if having two different names for everything is a good idea though, it could be even more confusing? I don't plan to add any extra functions to the package so learning these 9 should be enough for the foreseeable future. Unless some extremely useful func comes up of course :) On Tuesday, January 25, 2022 at 10:40:24 PM UTC+1 corin....@gmail.com wrote: > > For my money, as a newcomer to the API, having both the long named > function and the shorthand would be useful.

Afterall, commands in vi have a long form and short forms. > On Monday, 24 January 2022 at 10:32:48 pm UTC+11 eko...@gmail.com wrote: > >> sc is a convenience package to support writing short automation scripts >> that simply panic on errors.
