Looked so backwards to me, too. However, I decided to give it a go, anyway. Now, I have some scripts and small commands which start with a comma, and it looks neat and time saving. Yes, I can do path ordering to override usual commands. However, having a set of odd-job scripts which start with a comma gives a nice namespacing capability alongside a well narrowed-down tab-completion experience. While it's not the neatest thing around, it works surprisingly well. Another idea which looks useless until you start using is text expanders (i.e.: Espanso and TextExpander). | ||||||||

I never knew that what I've known as 'hotstrings' (since the AutoHotKey days) other sometimes also call 'text expanders'. | ||||||||

The irony in the number of extra commas you've used in this comment... | ||||||||
