[...] That's nice, though the description should probably mention the other strengths of Fish. I think the design document (http://fishshell.com/user_doc/design.html ) would help a lot. Also, why "do nearly everything", you can do anything? How about something like this: The friendly interactive shell is a command shell designed to be simple, powerful, consistent and discoverable. It has syntax highlighting, intelligent tab completion, helpful error messages and easy history search. The syntax is cleaner than POSIX shell syntax and lets do anything that you can do in POSIX shells.
