export fn name(...) is a C function of a library; build --shared makes lib<name>.so with no main and a
finch_module_on_fatal(handler) the host can take runtime errors over with. Ported from the embed work (the
runtime, its test and the docs are that work's; the compiler side is new).
The driver reads FINCH_PATH (more module folders), FINCH_RT (the runtime's file) and FINCH_CC (the clang).
tests/boot.sh also runs tests/shared.sh with the compiler under test. 41 passed.
- fn Struct.method(...) with self by reference, also on C structs
- map[K]V: insertion-ordered hash maps, literals, m[k] += 1, has/get/remove/keys/values
- -> T! / -> !, return error(...), or <value>, or { err }, try; fallible int/float/read_file/write_file/delete_file
- for i, x in list / for k, v in map
- print and str() share one text formatter
- LSP: method and map completion, method signatures; grammar and snippets for VS Code and Kate
- tests: 74 (methods, errors, maps + 11 failure cases); docs at all three levels, en and pl
