Abolish ICE. Fire them all. Prosecute their crimes. Start with prosecuting the crimes first and work your way backward if that makes you more comfortable. But we cannot live in a country with this level of elite impunity.

I wonder how involved it's going to be to add a keyboard shortcut in @Tuba. The app seems pretty solid, but I'm so used to Home button doing what it's supposed to do…

we resolved that tension by changing the expectations so that we want evoke.e to have just been executed, instead of wanting its name

when we presented the various options we were considering in a thread on here a week or so ago, we described a tension around wanting it to be possible to load a source file just by naming it on the command line, and wanting it to be easy to pass a source file's name as a string to enchant and inscribe

we really appreciate how clean that is

the semantics of command-line parameters are that each is treated, in turn, as if it names a Forth word or integer literal, and executed

except that if one of them is a filename, the file's contents are included and run immediately, instead

ah!!!! of course. it's running a second copy of process-command-line-arguments inside the hex transform. that needs to be suppressed, in the same way as relink-main-input-buffer-to-stdin is.

adding weird syntax features to the CLI processor, which is a simplified version of interpret, is like super easy-mode after doing those three GIANT variations on interpret for the transformation system. it's really nice how easy that part is now.

pretty sure it's the filename not getting saved in the right spot. memory management around that sort of thing is kind of a pain. hmmmmmm

interesting. enchant works when used as a CLI parameter, but inscribe segfaults.

the sequence of events in setting up the runtime environment is fiddly, but that really ought to work. hm hmmmm.
