@astra_underscore entire codebase is emacs org mode

@sigmasternchen @astra_underscore You could cross the streams of Forth, a custom DSL, *and* Perl, by going with a Forth-like custom DSL implemented in Raku, which used to be called Perl 6 (before it changed into a meta-language for writing DSLs).

[ware@brain.worm.pink]

@astra_underscore Oh... well Cpp MSVC that calls Typst library in rust then
