The rigid and obscure syntactic structure also checks. It's a couple of hours task for me to define a function, mostly spent on debugging the definition.
(Probably, if I did it all the time, I'd get it right every time. Just like creating and using COBOL variables.)
You mean writing the function body? I was not talking about the function body, but about getting the declaration correct. (The bad error messages and lack of real time verification surely contribute here.)
PS is more powerful than Bash, it really should be faster to write a function body in it.
