Notes and references
gollark: You should install a package for that?
gollark: It should! The minefield of bad ones is annoying!
gollark: `/usr/share/dict/words`
gollark: Accursed configure scripts.
gollark: It's a lowest common denominator. If you want to bind two high-level languages together it may be more practical, if arguably awful, to just shove JSON over IPC pipes between them.
