# Description
This PR refactors `drop columns` and fixes issues #10902 and #6846.
Tables with "holes" are now handled consistently, although still
somewhat awkwardly. That is, the columns in the first row are used to
determine which columns to drop, meaning that the columns displayed all
the way to the right by `table` may not be the columns actually being
dropped. For example, `[{a: 1}, {b: 2}] | drop column` will drop column
`a` instead of `b`. Before, this would give a list of empty records.
# User-Facing Changes
`drop columns` can now take records as input.
# Description
This PR tights input/output type-checking a bit more. There are a lot of
commands that don't have correct input/output types, so part of the
effort is updating them.
This PR now contains updates to commands that had wrong input/output
signatures. It doesn't add examples for these new signatures, but that
can be follow-up work.
# User-Facing Changes
BREAKING CHANGE BREAKING CHANGE
This work enforces many more checks on pipeline type correctness than
previous nushell versions. This strictness may uncover incompatibilities
in existing scripts or shortcomings in the type information for internal
commands.
# Tests + Formatting
<!--
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A
clippy::needless_collect -A clippy::result_large_err` to check that
you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library
> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
> ```

# After Submitting
<!-- If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date.
-->
Rename `all?`, `any?` and `empty?` to `all`, `any` and `is-empty` for sake of simplicity and consistency.
- More understandable for newcomers, that these commands are no special to others.
- `?` syntax did not really aprove readability. For me it made it worse.
- We can reserve `?` syntax for any other nushell feature.
* Allow range in 'drop nth'
* Unit tests for drop nth range
* Add range case to the description
* Fix description 2
* format fixes
* Fix example and some refactoring
* clippy fixes
* update docs to refer to length instead of count
* rename count to length
* change all occurrences of 'count' to 'length' in tests
* format length command
`drop` is used for removing the last row. Passing a number allows dropping N rows.
Here we introduce the same logic for dropping columns instead.
You can certainly remove columns by using `reject`, however, there could be cases
where we are interested in removing columns from tables that contain, say, a big
number of columns. Using `reject` becomes impractical, especially when you don't
care about the column names that could either be known or not known when exploring
tables.

* move commands, futures.rs, script.rs, utils
* move over maybe_print_errors
* add nu_command crate references to nu_cli
* in commands.rs open up to pub mod from pub(crate)
* nu-cli, nu-command, and nu tests are now passing
* cargo fmt
* clean up nu-cli/src/prelude.rs
* code cleanup
* for some reason lex.rs was not formatted, may be causing my error
* remove mod completion from lib.rs which was not being used along with quickcheck macros
* add in allow unused imports
* comment out one failing external test; comment out one failing internal test
* revert commenting out failing tests; something else might be going on; someone with a windows machine should check and see what is going on with these failing windows tests
* Update Cargo.toml
Extend the optional features to nu-command
