So... it does all the things regular "setup.sh" script does, but in the non-standard fashion, without any error handling or debugging capabilities?
I recommend learning shell. It is pretty easy, and ideal for those kinds of tasks.

Yes, you are right, my tool is pretty much redundant now (w/o any error handling as you rightfully pointed out).
Anyhow, good riddance, and thanks for your valuable feedback! (This is so embarrassing and painful at the same time for me, but in a good way.)
here is a random example: https://github.com/emoncms/vagrant/blob/master/provision/set...
in this particular case (a single apt install call), one would only need lines 1 and 15 of that file
as an extra bonus, I like putting "set -x" (print commands before executing) and maybe "set -e" (stop after first error)
