hset key field value [args...]

hget key field [args...] <- why cant this be together with hmget? means hget = hmget?

We can't extend HGET without changing the return type, since it currently just returns a single string, we would need to return it to an array of strings. This would be painful for clients to handle, so it doesn't really make sense. We could extend HSET because it returns a numeric for both cases.
