Description

Related problem

Hi lovely folks 🌞

So I had the joy to see Nushell in action for the first time recently, and I have to say, I am quite impressed with the neat output.

What I am also impressed by, is the immense complication, it can bring, when I want to launch a command that shows nicely. 😄

As you can see, is it suggested, that we could have a script, that helps with common pacman queries.

Next to the shown ones, I also like to introduce you to the pkgfile command, that helps with packaging.

This could clearly take some order 😃

Describe the solution you'd like

Clear output for pacman out of the box

See the solution in the linked example 👍🏻

Describe alternatives you've considered

Doing it by hand 😉
