William Carroll 3afb56a5e5 Begin supporting run
I'd like to be able to just call `run file.py` and have a program DWIM. I'm
working on run as a step in this direction. Define a simple configuration that
maps file extensions to template strings where "$file" is replaced with the
argv[1].

It basically works but there are outstanding TODOs. See the README and source
code for more information.

run

Simplify the commands you call to run scripts on the command line.

> run path/to/file.py
> run path/to/file.ts

How?

Define a run.json configuration mapping commands to filename extensions like so:

{
  ".ts": "npx ts-node $file",
  ".py": "python3 $file"
}

Then call run path/to/some/file.ts on the command line, and npx ts-node file.ts will run.

Installation

Install run using Nix.

> nix-env -iA briefcase.run
