l: A new runtime for k and q

Fair enough. Without seeing the code itself, one can only judge the book by its cover. I'm interested, but maybe not quite the target audience.

give it a spin! download is ~500kb for mac. It is however targeting folks who come from that world - but K/Q are absolutely worth exploring!

Unfortunately the code itself is in a style of C many find difficult to read. I blame my upbringing. ATW open sourced examples and it was not really helpful. More recently others are doing a step by step in more standard C https://github.com/ardentsia-cgs/kparser/

Isn't that "more standard C" because it's written by Claude?

Arthur Whitney's C is everything but standard

Not sure how you're replying to me without looking at the link.

this page/site seems fascinated with Claude, to the point where it is an unnecessary distraction.

Many of us can read atw C and would love to investigate!
