       | 
       | This project also introduces FANOS, "File descriptors And
       | Netstrings Over Sockets." And a YAML-like config language called
       | Hay. And OPy, "a Python bytecode compiler based on pgen2 and
       | compiler2."

       | shell is a lot of work, without inventing several new config
       | languages, a new network protocol, a fork of CPython, etc.
