Hi.
Recently a user from suckless told me that bash sucks, but before I
could ask why he went offline.
I tried looking at suckless.org page about software that sucks, but
couldn't find anything about bash.

No, rakitzis's rc accepts both syntaxes. That's why I didn't submit an
issue for it.

I like Plan 9's rc a lot, for scripting. I don't think it sucks at all.

Hi all,
On st 0.6 (and HEAD), pressing F5 capitalizes the word under the cursor.
This isn't a huge deal, but it interferes with the vim plugin ctrlp

list, but instead it closes the search menu and capitalizes the word und

Yep, just saw it mentioned in the thread. I'm surprised this exists and
is actually recommended

It was, and it's called loksh. stali recommends it.

Maybe there could be a flag option to disable horizontal scrolling?

So bash is not portable because of bashisms, bloated and slow?
Any of those 3 things could be a set-off, but all 3 at once makes me
agree that bash sucks.
#!/bin/sh should be good.
stali recommends loksh and mksh so I should try those.
They're equally good?

Hi.
Recently a user from suckless told me that bash sucks, but before I
could ask why he went offline.
I tried looking at suckless.org page about software that sucks, but
couldn't find anything about bash.
I can imagine why it sucks - no portability! #/bin/sh should be
enough for everyone. Is that
