        Better scripting with python
        
        Haven't you ever missed writing perl one liners? Or maybe you're more
        familiar with python than all the options of ``find``, but like the text
        interaction paradigm? ``pyli`` aims to make it easier to use python and
        all it's batteries in conjunction with your favorite hangout: the shell.
        
        Examples
        --------
        
        Let's do some warmups:
        
        ::
        
            pyli "2+2" # bc
        
            cat file.txt | pyli "line if 'string' in line else None" # grep
        
            cat file.txt | pyli "sum(len(l) for l in lines)" # wc -m
        
        And now something more complicated:
        
        ::
        
            log | pyli "str(time.time()) + ' ' + line" # time stamping a line
        
            cat file.txt | pyli "set(w for s in nltk.sent_tokenize(contents) for w in nltk.word_tokenize)" # bag of words a file
        
            cat file.json | pyli "pickle.dumps(json.loads(conts))" >file.pickle
        
        Maybe it makes sense to separate commands:
        
        ::
        
            cat index.html | pyli "a.get('href') for a in bs4.BeautifulSoup(cs).find_all('a')" | pyli --text='something' "r = requests.get(li); li if text in r.text else None"
        
            cat index.html | pyli "hashlib.sha1(cs).hexdigest()" | pyli "encryptedfile.EncryptedFile(stdout, getpass.getpass()).write(cs)"
        
        pyli
        ----
        
        Features:
        
        - Automatically import referred packages
        - Populate special CLI oriented variables
        
          * ``line`` (``li``, ``l``)
          * ``lines`` (``lis``, ``ls``)
          * ``contents`` (``cont``, ``cs``)
          * ``stdin``, ``stdout``, ``stderr``
          * Accept arbitrary GNU style arguments (-c, --blah), and make them available
          * Print last statement; if an assignment, print the assigned to variables
          * If we are using ``line``, then print the last statement for each line

        So your perl one-liner itch hasn't been itched enough yet? This command
        is for things that do not strictly fit into 'normal' python usage. For
        example:
        
        ::
        
            log | pyli "'{0} {1}'.fo(s(ti.ti()), l)"
        
            cat index.html | pyli "a.g('href') for a in BeSp(cs).f_all('a')" | pyli --text='something' "r = req.get(li); li if text in r.text else None"
        
        Features:
        
        - Autocomplete
        - Look through modules for 2nd level functions to import
        
        TODO

        What's left to do? Well, pretty much everything: it currently imports
        things and prints things out, and detects the use of
        contents/input/conts, but that's it. If you think this would be actually
        useful, do send me a message, since I just ran out of motivation with
        which to work on this. Or better yet, contribute!
