Support for function composition

Open sharkdp opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

It would be great if we could compose functions before we hand them over to map or filter.

Suppose that : would be the reverse composition operator (the flipped version of .):

find | filter extension : equals "jpg" | map prepend "thumbnail_" : replace_ext "png"

Using . for normal composition (like in Haskell) should actually work. It is not interpreted by (standard) shells.
