Cute!

I see where you are going with this and I like it. One conceptual
problem here is the meta-data format. Shell commmand line has the idea
of argument separators as spaces and strings. Although utf-8 almost
works well at the command line, I would have liked it if unicode had
given programmers their own glyph and character set to work in, so we
wouldn't have to go so crazy escaping the concepts that we'd wedged into
ASCII in the 80s.
BUT html/xml have a totally different concept of metadata than that, as
does org-mode...
json comes close to being a command line format that could be parsed
using conventional piping/filters.
In the beginning I thought I'd have gnugol output Lisp forms and the
interface be more like bbdb. There is a pretty clean json parser for
emacs however, and I've been thinking of using that.

I didn't know this existed, cool, I'll fiddle.
