@ -25,24 +25,24 @@ In Unix, it's common to pipe between commands to split up a sophisticated comman
Commands are separated by the pipe symbol (`|`) to denote a pipeline flowing left to right.

Because most of the time you'll want to see the output of a pipeline, `autoview` is assumed. We could have also written the above:
```
/home/jonathan/Source/nushell(master)> ls | where "file type" == "Directory"
/home/jonathan/Source/nushell(master)> ls | where type == Directory
```
Being able to use the same commands and compose them differently is an important philosophy in Nu. For example, we could use the built-in `ps` command as well to get a list of the running processes, using the same `where` as above.
