Unicode is wild, yo. Just found the symbol table that includes \N{ALIEN CRAB STEPPING LEFT} and \N{RIGHT-FACING BASSINET} .
Added in Unicode 16 (2024), the Symbols for Legacy Computing Supplement includes glyphs from platforms like the …
With that in mind, I had some limited success with tree-sitter, so I've uploaded it to https://gitlab.com/keturn/tree-sitter-yodl
I don't understand why I can match some anonymous nodes but not others.
The compromise I made with matching m…
Hank recently posted to vlogbrothers about slop, and said that generative AI isn't so backlashy for code as it is for other media.
I couldn't help but think “this man has clearly not seen my 🦣🍍 timeline.”
[insert obligatory caveats for swe…
One bit of absurdity is that though tree-sitter is purpose-built for syntax highlighting, and its own dedicated format for writing a test corpus for a grammar, I have no idea how to get highlighting while editing those test definitions.
Maybe I should pull back and reconsider what I'm expecting to get out of using tree-sitter for Yodl?
I'm not trying to create a Yodl *implementation.*
I just really appreciate having syntax highlighting.
Maybe if I take another look at it …
tree-sitter's escape hatch is "you can always write some C to make it do what you want!" — but I don't think anyone needs me to explain that C is *not* a language I want to be using for fiddly bits of string manipulation.
I spent a while last night looking around to figure out if I was missing something in my approach to tree-sitter, and what I found was mostly commiseration.
Tree-sitter's error reporting isn't particularly good when it's gone down the wron…
…and I'm kind of failing miserably in getting tree-sitter to parse Yodl.
In tree-sitter's defense, Yodl is not a particularly machine-friendly language. Frank, its progenitor, had been looking at LaTeX and SGML and the other formats of the…
Faced with this ydderly obscure document language, I thought “this is my chance to get acquainted with #tree-sitter!” because that's a highly-acclaimed bit of tech and it sounded more fun than anything else I was supposed to be doing.
I we…
When I started looking in to how the #Zsh docs are built, I assumed I'd be looking at Texinfo sources, because the HTML docs say they're built from that.
But it's weirder: The Zsh documentation source is written in Yodl: ~~Yet Onother~~ Yo…
I've been messing around with zsh plugins lately, for some reason?
Many things are possible in zsh, but it's such a compacted and context-sensitive syntax that I often find it very hard to read.
Almost makes me want to be able to transpile…
