vascorsd<p>This seems a very cool and interesting evolution for a stable and productive language, focused on real needs in the industry. The focus on making sure it all integrates well and works with legacy code is astounding. Very nice.

This is lobo sp*king

My #til is, that netcat (clones) and socat can rewrite \n to CRLF, which is handy for testing HTTP/1.1 manually.

Now I can postpone cluttering my #OCaml parser up with even more code and special cases.

netcat-openbsd / ncat: -C
socat - TCP4:127.0.0.1:8000,crnl
