This allows easy builds of the full interpreter with no
build system.
1. Get janet.c, janet.h, janetconf.h, and shell.c in a directory. Edit
janetconf.h as desired.
2. gcc shell.c janet.c -lm -ldl -O2 -o janet (on GNU-Linux for example)
3. ./janet -h (Yay!)
This makes it easier to get the CLI functionality when
embedding Janet, although the main reason is the init script
is now pre-compiled to bytecode when generating the boot image.
Flychecking will now work correctly with arity checking, and
will better handle imports. Well structured modules should interact
cleanly with the flychecker in a mostly safe manner, but maliciously
crafted modules can execute arbitrary code. As such, the flychecker is
not a good way to validate completely untrusted modules.
We also extend run-context with an :evaluator option to replace
:compile-only. This is more flexible and allows users to create their
own flychecker like functionality.
This allows some more optimizations when printing to
buffers or when output is disabled. It also makes printf
more consistent with print and prin (Same with eprintf).
The print family of functions now writes output
to an optional buffer instead of a file bound to :out.
This means output can be more easily captured an redirected.
This should help catch a number of errors, but it
is a very shallow implementation of type checking. It will
catch some common misuses of functions at compile time
rather than runtime.
This will prevent these functions from being run
with empty strings, which usually produces useless
output, as the internal string search algorithm will
never "find" empty strings. This is by design, as it is
not always obvious which empty strings should be found in
the search text.
This should be friendlier to most users. It does, however, mean
we lose range information. However, range information could be
recovered by re-parsing, as janet's grammar is simple enough to do this.
