Creating a game library using plaintext for easy management and launch

I found a plaintext way to manage my game library because they all require different commands to be run. Using kakoune and a text file with the commands I can pipe the selection into /bin/sh to run the selected command, running the game I want. The kakoune pipe-to command doesn't care about the output so it doesn't make any change to the current file. If someone know how to achieve this easily in other text editor, I'd appreciate if you share the method. Some parts of the video were speed-up (up to 9x) because loading some games can take a while and watching games loading isn't the point of the video.
