I really want something like a powershell for Unix, but still somewhat similar to the typical Unix shell, and with JSON as the object representation (since that will play best with existing tools, the environment, and command-line arguments). Ideally i'd want something like jq (https://stedolan.github.io/jq -- something of an awesome JSON query language as an inspiration for such a shell. Nico Full disclosure: I am a contributor to and maintainer of jq, but biased as I am by this, I think one can objectively say that Stephen Dolan did an awesome job.
