UnvalidatedCommand about console-kit HOT 3 CLOSED

Yes, another case is when we would like to inspect the parameters so the command handles arguments from the STDIN or from files. To exemplify take the Unix command head

we could send arguments to head through a pipe:
cat Package.swift | head
or we can send filenames as arguments to command.
head Package.swift README.md

Ruby handles these cases using ARGF. for an example: https://rderik.com/blog/shell-friendly-ruby-scripts/. If we could provide something similar I think it would be helpful to build commands that are friendly to be composed not just stand-alone commands.

In Console 4, would it be ok to do this?

final class Run: Command {
    struct Signature: CommandSignature { }
    let signature: Run.Signature = Signature()

    // ....
}

There isn't any signature validation unless you set strict to true, so it would work.
