- finch.toml: name, entry, paths, include, links, libdirs, cflags, ldflags, and [target.windows] etc.;
finch run / build / test with no file use its entry
- import thread: spawn, join, mutex, cpus; atomic_add/sub/load/store/swap/cas built in
- finch fmt [--check]: indentation by { }, trailing spaces, empty lines; also as LSP formatting
- link "x.cpp" (or in finch.toml): built with the C++ compiler, which then links (FINCH_CXX)
- #define RAYWHITE (Color){ 245, 245, 245, 255 } imports as a Color
- push(body) where push takes ptr[Body]: the same as push(addr(body))
- --target android (NDK clang from ANDROID_NDK_HOME, -llog)

Windows: the compiler made from bootstrap/windows-x86_64.ll runs under Wine, compiles itself to the same IR, builds an
exe of itself, and every test program passes through it. It needed: Windows-sized unsigned long for libclang's unsaved
file, no 'cross' when Windows builds for Windows, --target passed to libclang (libclang.dll assumes MSVC), the MinGW
triple always in the IR, FINCH_LDFLAGS, .exe names and FINCH_LLVM_INCLUDE in bootstrap/build.sh, winseed.sh/winbuild.sh.
macOS: seeds for arm64 and x86-64 made with the 11.3 SDK; IR is accepted by clang, nothing has run on a Mac yet.
CI gets a windows and a macos job. UNTESTED on real Windows/macOS runners.

src/embedded.fch (made by tools/pack.fch, checked by tests/run.sh) holds runtime/finch_rt.c and std/; when they aren't
beside the binary they're written to the cache folder once. All the sh/cmd specifics of the driver (quoting, temp dir,
mkdir, rm, mv, null device, path separator, cache dir, binary stdio) moved into host.fch / host_windows.fch.
