@helpdeskaleer@social.coop @eamon@social.coop It's pretty neat. You can create 'libraries' by defining a bunch of stuff in a script you pass to it on startup. I would load my libraries first, then data which is usually a bunch of 'bc' array statements assigning values from a data set that was parsed earlier. Once in a session it's difficult to get data out without parsing standard output but you can do some interactive stuff
