Yeah I don't disagree with that. If you're working in a big group with some shell scripts, and want to get stuff done, use ShellCheck.

I just find it annoying, hence the new shell :)

There's a lot more to Oil, but that's definitely one of the surface annoyances I want to fix. Although zsh actually does fix that, and for some reason I've almost never seen a zsh script.

Many oh-my-zsh plugins are just collection of functions, which I think could be considered scripts.

Yes sorry I should have said "I rarely see a batch program in zsh". zsh is customized with zsh scripts for sure, and they are very extensive.

I guess it's because zsh is not POSIX compatible by default.
