  • Not the author. But thank you, I didn't know that.

  • What you're doing is equivalent to

     bash
        
    nix-shell -p "grim slurp"
    
    
      

    Which won't work because nix-shell expects

     bash
        
    nix-shell -p "grim" "slurp"
    
    
      

    Which then becomes

     nix
        
    {...}@args: with import <nixpkgs> args; (pkgs.runCommandCC or pkgs.runCommand) "shell" { buildInputs = [ (grim) (slurp) ]; } ""
    
    
      

    According to the manual

    nix-shell --packages interprets each command line arguments as attribute names inside the Nix packages collection.

    The error message is because you are giving multiple package names as a single argument.
