Slowly squeezing bugs out of this toy compiler. It's interesting now that the bugs have moved beyond my total generalized naivete as to how to write a compiler, and are becoming involved more with the "actual" "semantics" of the "language" I'm compiling to. Being the total POS that javascript is, it has a crazy notion of scope that makes correct compilation of let-expressions very vexing. I may have to do some sort of CPS thing after all, or at the very least some renaming if I am to support variable shadowing at all. Also a couple of bugs in not correctly dealing with tuples the same way everywhere. I am still in a state right now where the compiled version of the parser is not working correctly, but it's time to go to sleep.

I was supposed to get my bike back today, but the new fork they ordered only came late today, so they didn't get the repair work done yet. They say…
