Welcome to the bash-functions wiki!

The important library of the moment is the listlib. It implements bash shell lists. It has operations to add, delete items to and from lists. And commands to list the available list names, and delete lists.

It would be nice if you could contribute operations to return the list length, list intersections and unions, and a membership test.

The intended use is to provide list management functions for small to moderate-sized file and shell management. For example, think of an overlay on a directory: there may be other text files than those with a .txt suffix.
