Production

The title is presumably derived from Act II, Scene i, Line 214 of The Taming of the Shrew, in which Petruchio asks Kate, "What, with my tongue in your tail?"

Notes

gollark: One issue is that it needs to *not* free a node if it's just been attached to a tree, but the GC presumably doesn't know about that.
gollark: I'm not sure how it would be an issue. Antiviruses can't just block all code written in Nim.
gollark: (sorry if this looks bad on IRC)
gollark: The code in cmark looks like```nim Node* = object ## `struct cmark_node` NodePtr* = ptr Node ## `cmark_node*````
gollark: I think the importc-ing code defines them as `ptr`s of some sort.
