As it is not ready yet it's hard to tell. Probably yes, but if your
script is as simple as the examples you gave you won't need a real
parser. Perhaps some regular expression or simple string splitting are
sufficient. Looking at your examples it seems like everything up to the
pipe symbol is a command and the parameters for this command appear
after the pipe and are surrounded by braces. So you could first split
the string at the pipe, get the command, remove the braces from the
second part and get the parameters.
