# Fxcrd
This lets you write macros in shell scripts
I was sick and bored and I don't care god
It took me three days to realize that the name was just my username with a x in it minus a letter.
whatever it worked for linus
I will eventually make this less of a mess. Hopefully.
# Install
Clone this somewhere.
```sh
$ git clone https://github.com/fcard/Fxcrd
```
Use the install.sh, it's interactive and obnoxious.
```sh
$ ./install.sh
Welcome and blah blah I will ask a few questions and we will install this thing
But wait there's more!
```
The above does only a half assed job and you need to add this to your .zshrc/.bashrc whatever
```sh
. $(fxcrd_path)/init
```
I think that's it but I don't know.
Also don't move the cloned directory anywhere else or everything will break.
Oh yeah, there are two backends for the macro expander, a slow and probably buggy `sh` one, and
a `julia` one which I spent most of my time on. I suggest the latter but you need `julia 0.6` which isn't
even out yet. Good. (install.sh will ask you which you want)
Next time I get a cold I will probably add more backends.
# Compiling
Put your code files in the `$(fxcrd_path)/include` directory and they will be compiled next time you open your shell.
Or you can also do:
```
$ fxcrd_compile "/path/to/file"
```
Compiled files will be put in the `$(fxcrd_path)/compiled` directory and will be loaded automatically.
# The code files and their macros
Code files are just shell scripts but you can do
```
@macro name
@code
echo $1
@end
@end
@name 1 @@
```
and that will compile to
```sh
echo 1
```
`$(fxcrd_path)/include/local_function`:
```sh
@macro local_function
local name=$1
local body="$(cat)"
local prefix="$(%%local_function`:
```sh
f() {
__kqhqAl2r2qkyx58LV3aQjtuEhcJjS8Ap__g(){
echo $1
}
local g="__kqhqAl2r2qkyx58LV3aQjtuEhcJjS8Ap__g"
$g 10
}
f
#g ins't here that's the point of the example
```
```sh
$ sh $(fxcrd_path)/compiled/%%local_function
10
```
Ya get the idea?
There are two types of macro calls:
```sh
@name arg1 arg2 arg3 @@everything here will be read as input.
```
```sh
@name arg1 arg2 arg3
every here
will be read
as input
you fool
@end
```
Some indentation shenanigans going on in the multiline form
```
@macro name @@echo $(cat)
@name
10
@end
```
becomes:
```
10
```
instead of:
```
10
```
And that's about it.
Oh yeah, `fxcrd_i` starts an interactive session: (needs julia)
```sh
[fabio:...ripts/ShellExtensions/fxcrd]$ fxcrd_i (master)
------------------
--- hello !! ---
------------------

bye bye!
[fabio:...ripts/ShellExtensions/fxcrd]$ echo I was in a better mood when I made it (master)
I was in a better mood when I made it
```
There was also a thing where if you had the julia backend you could create macros with julia code
```
@macro jlm -j
println("echo 10")
@end
```
But there is some weird shit about "world age" in the error messages and I need some sleep
