Amber: "makes it easier for you to write Bash Scripts using a high level programming language"

news.itsfoss.com/amber-lang/

@lupyuen Isn't Bash already an high level language? One can easily automate repetitive tasks, manipulate files and directories, and interact with system utilities without needing to know low-level details of the OS.

@lupyuen I hope I'm not the only one that recoiled in horror at the convoluted monstrosity involving bc and sed it came up with rather than using the -gt opotion for the test in that if statement.

If that's the sort of bash script they choose for their example I'd hate to see what it does on a bad day.
