now that im a few hundred lines deep in my bash scripts it is clear to me that i am in too complex a task for bash to be enjoyable but fuck it we ball

@wallhackio Is that the same where æscling told you to use Makefile instead?
@wallhackio What does the script do, anyway?
@vaporeon_ @wallhackio turn markdown files into a statically hostable blog, using pandoc
@aescling @wallhackio Perhaps I'm stupid and clueless, but I do agree that it sounds like a good application for Makefiles, set a Makefile rule that every file that ends in .md gets a Pandoc command invoked on it that turns it into .html file...
@vaporeon_ @wallhackio he wants each blog post to be able to link to its purrevious and next post, which at the very least seems tricky to do in a Makefile
other than that, i would consider this a purrfectly good candidate fur one
