gollark: STOP DOING BF DERIVATIVES- BF WAS NOT MEANT AS A SERIOUS LANGUAGE- SO MANY DERIVATIVES yet NO REAL-WORD USE FOUND for mildly different variants of it- Wanted to have basic substitutions of it anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that. It was called `sed`- Hello, how are >---><><.,><><> doing? Isn't the weather <><++++<>< today? - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged.

gollark: I love how the binary package is actually smaller than the one for source.

gollark: Okay, to be honest, I'll do that, I don't actually care enough to peg my CPU at 100% for several hours.

gollark: They should really just use ACTUAL STANDARDS and make it run in recent browsers generally.
