I have spent some time over the last month or so rewriting the Arch

time and
a net performance loss -- using bash-style conditionals is about 30%
faster when nothing needs to be touched on the filesystem and about
200%
easier to read, and you can use bash regexps in place of most trivial
uses of sed, grep, and awk when mangling parameters or variables --
the
fewer short-lived processes we fork the better.
You can browse changes I have made in the git repo @

you
can checkout my changes to play around with from

Okay, those are LOTS of patches. I agree with most of them, but not
all.
However, reviewing and commenting them like this is a bit tedious -
can
you use git send-email to send them to this list as a patch series,
so I
can comment properly?
Sure. I will do so tonight.
