s :: QuasiQuoter

A simple quasiquoter for executing system commands on a filepath for example

> [s|echo $filename|] "/home/test/thing.txt"

will return

  thing.txt
  ExitSuccess
 

You can think of [s|echo $filename|] essentially converts into

   \path -> system $ "echo" ++ encodeString (filename path)
 

Here is another example

> [s|gcc $path -o $directory$basename.o|] "/home/test/thing.c"

All "file parts" start with a '$'. The '$' can be escaped by preceding it with a '\'

There are the following options for "file parts"

• $path
• $root
• $directory
• $parent
• $filename
• $dirname
• $basename
• $ext
