Love orca, and that's a really nice example. Messed with it a bit when it came out, and one toy project I'll share in the hopes that someone does it before me: an orca GUI that uses a larger grid with representative images in place of single char glyphs. I found that writing orca is fairly straightforward — you look up the sheet, find a thing and do it. It's reading that's the hurdle. An 8 char chunk that made perfect sense when I wrote it takes just as many lookups to read later. This probably gets easier over time, but I still think it's a cool design opportunity.

Yep absolutely! It reminds me of writing cryptic perl one-liners or something.

Oh this is the same group behind ORCA? I should read up on them more if they have multiple projects like this

I don't suppose you are the live coding Richard who was on Lopez Island earlier this month, are you?
