gollark: Hey, maybe I should rewrite my eternally unfinished project in ReasonML or something. It'll never be finished either way.
gollark: I like the whitespacelessness.
gollark: Why is that different to regular calls?
gollark: Oh, right, you can remap keywords? No, then.
gollark: It looks like you actually *could* handle this with just a JS interpreter with extra primitives, apart from the "states" which are basically closures anyway.
