Well, that was the idea. The shell is about dealing with text output from various programs that are connected through pipes. Why not provide the tools to manipulate the text output too?

It also works as an AWK alternative. If you don't put anything before the pizza operator, it will read from stdin.

Code:
BEGIN { /* code */ }
/a regex/ { /* more code */ }
END { /* code */ }

Turns into this:

Code:
# begin
|> ,x/a regex/ { body }
# end
