I use different languages for different purposes. Although bash euns everywhere, its a walking footgun and thus I only use it for small sub 100 line no or one option Scripts. the rest goes to one of Python, which nowadays runs almost everywhere, Julia or a compiled language for the larger stuff

If you just want to move some files around and do basic text substitution, turning to Python or another other "full fledged programming language" is a mistake. There is so much boiler plate involved just to do something simple like rename a file.

You mean

    import os
    os.rename(“src.txt”, “dest.txt”)
