# Description
This PR changes some commands that previously accepted row conditions
(like `$it > 5`) as parameter to accept closures instead. The reasons
are:
a) The commands would need to move into parser keywords in the future
while they feel more like commands to be implemented in Nushell code as
a part of standard library.
b) In scripts, it is useful to store the predicate condition in a
variable which you can't do with row conditions.
c) These commands are not used that often to benefit enough from the
shorter row condition syntax
# User-Facing Changes
The following commands now accept **closure** instead of a **row
condition**:
- `take until`
- `take while`
- `skip until`
- `skip while`
- `any`
- `all`
This is a part of an effort to move away from shape-directed parsing.

# 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` to check that you're using the standard code
style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass
# 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.
* Initialize join.rs as a copy of collect.rs
* Evolve StrCollect into StrJoin
* Replace 'str collect' with 'str join' everywhere
git ls-files | lines | par-each { |it| sed -i 's,str collect,str join,g' $it }
* Deprecate 'str collect'
* Revert "Deprecate 'str collect'"
This reverts commit 959d14203e.
* Change `str collect` help message to say that it is deprecated
We cannot remove `str collect` currently (i.e. via
`nu_protocol::ShellError::DeprecatedCommand` since a prominent project
uses the API:
