The other fundamental command for working with tables is `get`. Like `select`, `get` allows you to work with columns and rows in a table, or fields in a record. Unlike `select`, the `get` command extracts data out of the table and does not try to preserve its original form. This is helpful when you want to get at the cell data itself.

# Introducing 'nuon'

As the syntax for Nushell has continued to grow and evolved, we noticed that writing data in Nushell was kinda fun. The more we played with it, the more the idea grew that we could create a data file format using the Nushell syntax for data. Thus, 'nuon' was born. With it, we now include `from nuon` and `to nuon` to help you work with the new .nuon files.

NEEDS CLEANUP

some of the items are already documented pretty well. in this section maybe just supply a link to that section

- PROMPT_COMMAND and PROMPT_COMMAND_RIGHT are covered in coloring_and_theming.md
- LAST_EXIT_CODE is covered in stdout_stderr_exit_codes.md
- add screenshot for lscolors support - in assets folder with 0_59_1 prefix
- document parallelism and par-each - is documented in parallelism.md
- breaking changes is documented in this issue https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/4305 - maybe we should just put a link to this and maybe clean up that issue at the last moment before release and lock the issue?
- document people who've contributed passed 0.44
