gollark: Macron's tokeniser must permit this.
gollark: The current most developed Minoteaur instance (take that, Macron) is in Nim.
gollark: Also `let`/`var`.
gollark: I find some of Nim's behaviour weird but it certainly has some cool parts. Such as templates, easy custom operators, the indentational syntax, and `result` in functions.
