gollark: Many things don't even *need* to deal with it directly and can happily get away with just treating strings as opaque.
gollark: I mean, some operations are ÆÆÆÆÆÆÆ but mostly all you need is... indexing/substrings/uppercase/lowercase, which are not too horrible.
gollark: It's not *hugely* hard.
gollark: Apparently IRifier is some sort of convoluted monad transformer stack?
gollark: ```haskellirifyDefn :: Definition -> IRifier IRirifyDefn (Defn mt _ args expr) = do argns <- mapM (\n -> do f <- fresh pure (LocalIdentifier n, LocalIdentifier f)) args def <- withEnv argns (irify expr) let ir = foldr (\(_, LocalIdentifier a) l -> Node () $ Lam a l) def argns case mt of Just t -> pure . Node () $ Annot ir t Nothing -> pure ir```WHAT DOES IT MEAN
