# knight.clj
WIP (bad) implementation of [sampersand][samp]'s [Knight][kn] in Clojure.
[samp]: https://github.com/sampersand
[kn]: https://github.com/knight-lang/knight-lang
## Implementation-specific behaviour
- All UB (as far as I can tell) is caught, usually in the form of an exception.
- Strings allow unicode
- `PROMPT` will return an empty string if EOF is returned
- `RANDOM` will return a random 32-bit integer from 0 to 2147483647 (inclusive, afaik)
- `` ` `` has a few changes:
- stderr is put into the variable `sh_stderr`
- stdout is returned, except when the exit code is nonzero, in that case:
- stdout is put into the variable `sh_stdout` and the the exit code is returned
- `LENGTH` is the number of bytes, when encoded as UTF-8
- `DUMP` will print `Block(opaque)` for blocks
- `ASCII` supports Unicode codepoints, e.g. `O A 128563` => 😁, `O A "😁"` => 128563
- `?` will never consider `BLOCK`s equal.
- `=` will coerce its first argument to a string if it is not an identifier, and use that dynamically as a variable name.
- `VALUE` is implemented
- `~` is implemented
- `USE` is implemented
- Extension: `XGENSYM(string)`, similarly to the Lisp operation of the same name (minus `X`), generates a fresh name that is not currently defined. This has very low likelihood of collision, but in that case it will try up to 1,000 times to create a new name before giving up (using 6-digit random numbers, so the likelihood of 1,000 consequitive collisions is astronomically (un)lucky and if that happens perhaps run and get a lottery ticket as fast as possible). Example: `O D XGENSYM "foo"` => `String(foo658237)`, `O D XGENSYM "bar"` => `String(bar430567)`. Coerces argument to string, returns string.
