This is amazing for shells. Thank you for writing it.

Your reasoning and explanations are first rate, and the documentation is superb.

Your emphasis on POSIX is a great approach for working on a very wide variety of shells, including older ones and regulated ones. I deal with these regularly at enterprise clients, and I'm excited to try Modernish with these. Kudos!

Hey, it's good to know you found it so useful. Just to be clear though, I just found and posted this here; Martijn Dekker [1] seems to be the main contributor and presumably the creator of the library.

His email ID, according to a personal web page of his [2], is martijn at_the_rate_of inlv dot demon dot nl , in case you wish to send the kudos along his way.
