Is "let-over-lambda" (variable capture / closure) not possible in F#? Is that not a form of implicit dependency injection?

This seems fine within a file, but isn't this problematic across files? Now the file order is significant, so not only is the Visual Studio XML project file is an essential part of the language semantics, you also can't organize your files in subdirectories freely? Or did they fix that at some point? How does that scale to larger projects?

Is there a specific reason why Windows is not supported?

OBS is very good software, thanks for working on it!

Recording the screen works much better than any other screen recording software I tried. For this use case the preview can be a bit confusing. If the resolution does not match (because of OS 200% scaling for example) going to the settings each time to adjust it is a bit cumbersome; the interactive resizing handles in the preview somehow never helped me. Sometimes one of the reset zoom context menus helps.

Also the "Window source" would be awesome, but is a bit cumbersome to set up every time, and doesn't capture things like menus unfortunately.

It's probably really difficult to improve these things, so they work automagically for dummies like me that know very little about OBS and use only a tiny feature set, without taking making things worse for power users, which are probably happy with things as they are.

Even drawing front-to-back you don't need the y-buffer, if you switch the loops: for x ... for y ...

Another trick I now remember was to interpolate the color values on such a y-segment, to reduce the pixelated look.

Same with leaning. Add one more line of code and tweak the draw call:

    var ylean = (input.leftright*(i/screenwidth-0.5) + 0.5) * screendata.canvas.height / 4;
    DrawVerticalLine(i, heightonscreen+ylean, hiddeny[i]+ylean, map.color[mapoffset]);

It adds a lot to the "feeling" IMO :)

There were also tricks to extend this simple rendering algorithm to allow limited rotations around the other two axes, to look up / down slightly (just move everything up / down; also implemented in the demo here) and to "lean" when steering left / right (just move everything up / down proportional to the distance from the center of the screen; not implemented in the demo here, but visible in the 1992 NovaLogic Comanche example GIF).

There were Turbo Pascal versions of this on websites in the 90s I think, but it seems they were lost.

You are correct, thanks.

purge is a third-party extension; it removes untracked files as you wrote.

But ~purge~ prune is also a command of the evolve extension, that is conceptually similar to strip, as GP wrote.

Fortunately "transplant" is just an old extension, so you can just forget entirely about it.

"Graft" copies; "Rebase" moves.

Alternatively just forget about graft also, and use "rebase --keep" to copy.

"Rebase with evolve" is conceptually still rebase.

Mercurial has strip (removes changesets from repository, by default stores a backup). Mercurial does not have purge.

Evolve has ~purge~ prune (marks changesets as obsolete).

Evolve is similar to a git reflog.

Evolve stores more contextual information than the reflog, so Mercurial+Evolve it is safer and easier to undo things than in Git+reflog. Mercurial also pushes some of this contextual information, so even collaborative history rewriting is possible in a safe and easy way, unlike git.

I don't understand the reasons. What is the actual problem in this "even-odd problem"?

How do all the other languages that have an equivalent function (Perl quotemeta, PHP preg_quote, Python re.escape, Ruby: Regexp.escape, Java Pattern.quote, C# Regex.Escape, Go QuoteMeta, Rust regex::escape) avoid or deal with this problem?
