I wrote this little thing in bash: https://github.com/vinc/pkg

I find it quite useful as I'm switching daily between Arch Linux, Ubuntu, and MacOS.

I also have a wrapper that I also wrote in Bash that is also called pkg and also does short commands (pkg i <name>). And here I thought I was being clever...

So it means it's a good idea!

The same author has previously implemented the same thing in Python, https://github.com/termget/termget . It's linked in the readme.

I am the author. I did not created TermGet, I'm just a developer of it. TermGet works different then sysget. TermGet is an console based interface where sysget only works with system arguments which is way more efficent.

I am the author of TermGet. TermGet is sort of like TermGet, but it has an interface. I wanted to make TermGet a cross platform software center for you terminal. I am only 13, and school has made it hard for me to find time for development, so TermGet development has slowed down. When I do have time TermGet is my favorite project to work on, and I'm probably not going to discontinue it until I run out of features to add. I need more feature ideas because TermGet has so many features, I'm running out of ideas.

Exactly! I was expecting python or go.
