Makes the args array only include args passed to your shrimp program. Use -- when passing args to the cli.

$ cat args.sh
#!/usr/bin/env shrimp
args | echo
$ ./args one two three
['one' 'two' 'three']
$ shrimp -E args -- one two three
['one' 'two' 'three']
$ shrimp -E argv
['/Users/chris/dev/projects/shrimp/bin/shrimp' '-E' 'argv']
$ ./argv.sh
['/Users/chris/dev/projects/shrimp/bin/shrimp' './argv.sh']

@probablycorey We need a better name than args, maybe? Because if you do args = blah in a script you're going to overwrite the global for your whole program.

Maybe $script.args ? We could then also add:

  • $script.path
  • $script.name

Or do we want to do Python-style and do __args__ or something? Kinda gross.

Oh yeah, can't do $script because that interferes with string interpolation.

Maybe a good place for CAPS? SCRIPT.name and ARGS and ARGV?

For now I'm going with just $, alone. We can change later if we come up with something more Shrimpy:

  • $.args
  • $.script.name
  • $.script.path
  • $.env
  • $.pid
  • $.cwd

($ is kinda fun because it's an s like... shrimp)
