//! # command-stream
//!
//! Modern shell command execution library with streaming, async iteration, and event support.
//!
//! This library provides a Rust equivalent to the JavaScript command-stream library,
//! offering powerful shell command execution with streaming capabilities.
//!
//! ## Features
//!
//! - Async command execution with tokio
//! - Streaming output via async iterators
//! - Event-based output handling (on, once, emit)
//! - Virtual commands for common operations (cat, ls, mkdir, etc.)
//! - Shell operator support (&&, ||, ;, |)
//! - Pipeline support with `.pipe()` method and `Pipeline` builder
//! - Global state management for shell settings
//! - `cmd!` macro for ergonomic command creation (similar to JS `$` tagged template literals)
//! - Cross-platform support
//!
//! ## Module Organization
//!
//! The codebase follows a modular architecture similar to the JavaScript implementation:
//!
//! - `ansi` - ANSI escape code handling utilities
//! - `commands` - Virtual command implementations
//! - `events` - Event emitter for stream events
//! - `macros` - The `cmd!` macro for ergonomic command creation
//! - `pipeline` - Pipeline execution support
//! - `quote` - Shell quoting utilities
//! - `shell_parser` - Shell command parsing
//! - `state` - Global state management
//! - `stream` - Async streaming and iteration support
//! - `trace` - Logging and tracing utilities
//! - `utils` - Command results and virtual command helpers
//!
//! ## Quick Start
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! use command_stream::{run, cmd};
//!
//! #[tokio::main]
//! async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//!     // Execute a simple command
//!     let result = run("echo hello world").await?;
//!     println!("{}", result.stdout);
//!
//!     // Using the cmd! macro (similar to JS $ tagged template)
//!     let name = "world";
//!     let result = cmd!("echo hello {}", name).await?;
//!     println!("{}", result.stdout);
//!
//!     // Using pipelines
//!     use command_stream::Pipeline;
//!     let result = Pipeline::new()
//!         .add("echo hello world")
//!         .add("grep world")
//!         .run()
//!         .await?;
//!
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
