This recipe proposes an alternative syntax for sequential data processing functions, that reflects unix shell pipe syntax. Here is an example: bashusers = ( file('/etc/passwd') | grep('/bin/bash') | aslist ) I don't know if this idea was already explored before; hope this can be useful. For details and sample code please see link above.

If you're serious about this, you'll need to write up a PEP and push it forward.
