The trio the author decided on 2026-09-20 is now all built: def is CL's
defparameter — its initialiser runs on every daemon re-run, unguarded, so
an edited initialiser repaints the same storage on C-c C-c plus re-run —
defonce (Clojure's name for CL's defvar, per the author) initialises once
behind the .init~once. flag, and defconst stays the image.
One parse arm reads both forms; the difference is Ast.reinit, carried to
Tast.global's grerun. Emit.startup_plan gives a def no guard flag, and
Check.check_global lifts every def initialiser — zero and literal
included — into global/<n>, so the host's startup reaches it through the
function cell and a re-evaluated def swaps it (Session's def_inits;
Emit.redefinition declares the cell for a non-sibling target). The old
defvar spelling is refused with the rename and both compiling spellings,
and every program, test, doc and editor list is swept — except sand.flan,
the author's live WIP, whose seven defvar lines are flagged in FIX.org
and keep its three dependent tests red on this branch.
Key members are :key-r, :key-space, :key-left-shift; MouseButton members
are :mouse-left through :mouse-back — mouse- over button- because gamepads
have buttons too. Bare members collided across enums and with user code.
The bindings enum directive grew an optional third column declaring the
Flan-side member prefix, stripped before the C prefix is applied, so key-r
checks against KEY_R rather than KEY_KEY_R; a member that does not carry
the declared prefix is reported, not checked under a guessed name. The
enum-member error grew a did-you-mean: one edit away, or the bare name of
a prefixed member, so :r suggests :key-r.
sand.flan is the author's live WIP and is deliberately not touched; its
three keywords (lines 161-166) leave test_session and sand-headless red
until he moves them. Everything else that calls the two enums moved.
vendor/raylib/modes.flan: five macros over the five pairs the package binds
-- with-drawing, with-mode-2d, with-mode-3d, with-texture-mode,
with-scissor-mode. A second file with no declare-c in it, split out on
vector.flan's reasoning: raylib.flan is the package's statement about C and
nothing here names C, so nothing here can be made wrong by raylib changing.
Each expands to (do (begin-... args) body... (end-...)) -- the calls the
author used to type, in the order they typed them. No let, no gensym: nothing
binds a name, so there is nothing for a caller's name to collide with.
What it removes is the End* that is missing, wrong, or no longer beside its
Begin*. What it cannot remove is a body leaving through the unwind path: a
return or an invoke-restart skips the rest of the do and the End* with it.
defer is the obvious fix and is refused inside a loop body, which is where a
pair always lives -- checked, not assumed. So sand.flan's discipline stays:
keep the restart boundary outside the pair.
35 call sites converted across examples/ and sand.flan. The one left is
core-scissor-test.flan, whose Begin and End sit in two separate `when`s with
the drawing between them -- a conditional pair is a shape a bracketing macro
cannot express.
test/programs/rl-with.flan covers with-scissor-mode, which no example can,
with a frame function unreachable from main so it needs no libraylib;
rl-with-reject.flan is the arity half.
core-2d-camera, core-scissor-test, core-window-flags, core-world-screen
and core-window-should-close, ported from raylib 5.5's examples/core.
What each one asked of vendor/raylib:
2d-camera nothing. A whole Camera2D by value, per frame, into the
call that actually draws with it — the layout the
acceptance table pins through arithmetic, now going
through the path it was bound for.
scissor-test begin-scissor-mode / end-scissor-mode, hand-written.
window-flags twelve more ConfigFlags constants; raylib.flan carried
the four sand.flan sets and this reads eleven.
world-screen the 3D surface did not exist: no Vector3, no Camera3D,
and the importer refused every 3D function in raylib.h
by name for want of them. Two defstructs, two defenums,
begin/end-mode-3d, update-camera, get-world-to-screen,
draw-cube, draw-cube-wires, draw-grid — and 24 more 3D
lines the importer can generate now that the types are
described.
window-should-close set-exit-key, and Key/null to pass it.
The hand-written/generated line, written down in vendor/raylib/bindings:
a drawing pair inside a frame is hand-written, and so is anything whose
Flan face is not the C signature — set-exit-key takes a Key, update-camera
takes a (Ptr Camera3D) and a CameraMode. The window-state family and
get-mouse-x/y stay generated: plain scalars in and bool out, with nothing
for a hand-written line to add.
Camera3D's projection field stays i32, because the header says int and the
layout check holds this file to that; rl/camera-projection is the
conversion, and still takes a keyword.
