gollark: <@184468521042968577> You know, a structure of ```lua{ ["a/b/c"] = "hugeblank's bad code"}```would be better for writes and stuff but worse for listing.Also, you can convert paths to a "canonical form" with `fs.combine(path, "") `.
gollark: https://pastebin.com/G2PMCNhFSkynet: simple websocket-based data transfer (ask if you want the server code).Use with `local skynet = require "skynet"````skynet.receive(channel) - receive a message on the given channelskynet.send(channel, data) - send a message (can be any JSON-serializable type) on the given channelskynet.listen() - convert "websocket_message"s to "skynet_message"sskynet.open(channel) - kind of internal, open "channel" - returns a raw websocket, which you must not use or else.```
gollark: I made a coroutine manager which kills the regular CC loop (run rednet & shell in `parallel.waitForAny`) and provides a convenient API for running your own processes.https://pastebin.com/HL0SZhJG

gollark: A somewhat bad demo of ARC (https://forums.computercraft.cc/index.php?topic=10): basically, it displays text on overlay glasses when you're near "beacons" which broadcast text to display. Look at the top right, the top left/bottom left are not ARC stuff.
