pkgs/profpatsch/e: translate [ and ] to block boundaries
Since the goal of using `e` with argv is interactive execution of block-style commands from the command line, the use of { and } for blocks is sub-optimal, since bash (and ostensibly also fish) interpret them as metacharacters and assign some semantics. [ and ] on the other hand are not taken (apart from the `[` executable, which is only relevant in command position and can always be replaced by the `test` command). So we translate a stand-alone "[" argument to "{" and the same for "]"/"}", giving us a transparent block syntax.
