Faster invocations of planck weren't faster

I tried it with actually running a script as well, so this isn't just a case of -e not caching

Ya, I think I'd like to see the joker standard lib growing in a way that is all specialized for scripting

the os namespace is nice, but there could be utilities added to make scripting better

Somthing like conch: https://cljdoc.org/d/clj-commons/conch/0.9.2/doc/readme

I mean, I havn't hit limitations yet, as my scripts have been very simple

But I can see it being cool if it evolved to be a batteries included specialized for scripting Clojure dialect

It would make sense, since the interpreter isn't trying to be fast. I don't think joker would evolve to be a general purpose Clojure. It is not exactly Clojure on Go, and doesn't seem to want to be

Right now, the missing piece for me is selective use of streams and the ability to start and monitor sub-processes, for | like behavior.
