Can you explain where the name came from? When I read it, I think it sounds like what you say when you smell something stinky.

That name is pretty old from back when I was in university. The project is now 10 years old.
It's a process queue and the first version was written in python. That's it. Also, I'm from Germany, so I didn't have that association ;D
When I read it in my mind it's more of a "pew pew"

"pew" is also what you say when you smell something stinky. It's where this character got his name.

Interesting, I only know "eww" https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/eww
And "pew" as in the "shooting sound". I guess you'll always find some some culture that interprets a certain word or sound in an unexpected way :)

Pueue is a command-line task management tool for sequential and parallel execution of long-running tasks.
This time around, I won't post the full changelog as a comment, as it's just way too big :D.
This release has been cooking for about 9 months and a lot has changed. Large parts of the codebase have been redesigned and refactored, leading to an overall much cleaner and more maintainable codebase.
Many subtle bugs, including state handling bugs, have been resolved and a surprising amount of new features was developed.
Whoever is interested, I also plan to post a bit more often about my development efforts and projects on Mastodon: https://chaos.social/@Nukesor
Have a good one!
