There already exists a section of the docs [called "what's a package set?"](https://github.com/purescript/spago#whats-a-package-set)

I'll reopen this - it sounds like we have quite a few areas that are ripe for improvement: - the command line help strings are not clear enough about what...

cc @jamesdbrock hopefully this is the same issue you had 😄

> I'd argue that `spago registry search` has limited utility There is currently no other way of searching the totality of packages that are included in the Registry. In practice...

@edwardw I suspect it's the Node instance in the middle that it's hanging ([this one](https://github.com/purescript/spago/blob/726a45ba3784bce6b6b5e61d1e52a74994555fdd/src/Spago/Command/Run.purs#L121) that we launch to run the script), while the child node always terminates properly

But the inner node instance should terminate when asked, no? So at that point the middle one (spawned with execa) should return too. It's as if we need a ```js...

Man, that's some great digging 😄 I gather the next step is to patch execa to allow this without going the unsafe route?

I wonder if this is something that needs to be implemented in spago itself? Terminals offer facilities to alias things to shorten them (after all we are not the first...

> Are there any stronger reasons against putting an alias in a spago.yaml file? A principle I apply often when dealing with things is "love the problem, not the solution"....

For example, it just occurred to me that - riffing on my previous idea of fuzzy matching package names - we could come up with matching abbreviations for hyphened names....
