I've had the notion that builtins.genericClosure can be used to express
any recursive algorithm, but a proof is much better than a notion of
course! In this case we can easily show this by implementing a function
that converts a tail recursive function into an application of
builtins.genericClosure.
This is possible if the function resolves its self reference using a
fixed point which allows us to pass a function that encodes the call to
self in a returned attribute set, leaving the actual call to
genericClosure's operator. Additionally, some tools for collecting meta
data about functions (argCount) and calling arbitrary functions (apply,
unapply) are necessary.

* It decodes RFC2047 only upon request, as you may want to be stricter

* It checks header name equality case insensitively.

builtins.genericClosure is a quite powerful (and undocumented) Nix
primop: It repeatedly applies a function to values it produces and
collects them into a list. Additionally individual results can be
identified via a key attribute.
Since genericClosure only ever creates a single list value internally,
we can eliminate a huge performance bottleneck when building a list in a
recursive algorithm: list concatenation. Because Nix needs to copy the
entire chunk of memory used internally to represent the list, building
big lists one element at a time grinds Nix to a halt.
After rewriting decode using genericClosure decoding the LaTeX source
of my 20 page term paper now takes 2s instead of 14min.

For now mblog only contains the mnote-html executable which takes a mime
message from a maildir and prints the equivalent HTML fragment to
stdout. It is intended to work with the mblaze(7) utilities,
i. e. mnote-html resolves all `object` tags to proper `img` inclusions
with the correct filename, so mshow(1)'s -x version can supply the
needed image files. A note created using Apple's Notes app (tested with
the iOS version) can be converted in a viewable HTML file like this:
$ mnote-html path/to/msg > fragment.html
$ mshow -x path/to/msg
$ cat <(echo "<!DOCTYPE html>") fragment.html > document.html
$ xdg-open document.html
Note that only the limited feature set of Apple Notes when using the
IMAP backend is supported. The iCloud-based one has more (quite neat)
features, but its notes can only accessed via an internal API as far as
I know.
This CLI is a bit impractical due to the big startup overhead of loading
the lisp image. mblog should be become a fully fletched static site
generator in the future, but this is a good starting point and providing

Adds ECL as a second supported implementation, specifically a statically
linked ECL. This is interesting because we can create statically linked
binaries, but has a few drawbacks which doesn't make it generally
useful:
* Loading things is very slow: The statically linked ECL only has byte
compilation available, so when we do load things or use the REPL it is
significantly worse than with e. g. SBCL.
* We can't load shared objects via the FFI since ECL's dffi is not
available when linked statically. This means that as it stands, we
can't build a statically linked //web/panettone for example.
Since ECL is quite slow anyways, I think these drawbacks are worth it
since the biggest reason for using ECL would be to get a statically
linked binary. If we change our minds, it shouldn't be too hard to
provide ecl-static and ecl-dynamic as separate implementations.
ECL is LGPL and some libraries it uses as part of its runtime are as
well. I've outlined in the ecl-static overlay why this should be of no
concern in the context of depot even though we are statically linking.
Currently everything is building except projects that are using cffi to
load shared libaries which have gotten an appropriate
`badImplementations` entry. To get the rest building the following
changes were made:
* Anywhere a dependency on UIOP is expressed as `bundled "uiop"` we now
use `bundled "asdf"` for all implementations except SBCL. From my
testing, SBCL seems to be the only implementation to support using
`(require 'uiop)` to only load the UIOP package. Where both a
dependency on ASDF and UIOP exists, we just delete the UIOP one.
`(require 'asdf)` always causes UIOP to be available.
* Where appropriate only conditionally compile SBCL-specific code and
if any build the corresponding files for ECL.
* //lisp/klatre: Use the standard condition parse-error for all
implementations except SBCL in try-parse-integer.
* //3p/lisp/ironclad: disable SBCL assembly optimization hack for all
other platforms as it may interfere with compilation.
* //3p/lisp/trivial-mimes: prevent call to asdf function by substituting
it out of the source since it always errors out in ECL and we hardcode
the correct path elsewhere anyways.
As it stands ECL still suffers from a very weird problem which happens
when compiling postmodern and moptilities:

nint (short for nix interpreter) is a tiny wrapper around nix-instantiate
which allows to run nix scripts, i. e. nix expressions that conform to
a certain calling convention. A nix script runnable using nint must
conform to the following constraints:
* It must evaluate to a function which has a set pattern with an
ellipsis as the single argument.
* It must produce a string as a return value or fail.
When invoked, a the expression receives the following arguments:
* `currentDir`: the current working directory as a nix path
* `argv`: a list of strings containing `argv` including `argv[0]`
* extra arguments which are manually specified which allows for
passing along dependencies or libraries, for example:
nint --arg depot '(import /depot {})' my-prog.nix [ argv[1] … ]
would pass along depot to be used in `my-prog.nix`.
Such nix scripts are purely functional in a sense: The way inputs can be
taken is very limited and causing effects is also only possible in a
very limited sense (using builtins.fetchurl if TARBALL_TTL is 0,
adding files and directories to the nix store, realising derivations).
As an approximation, a program executed using nint can be thought of
as a function with the following signature:
λ :: environment → working directory → argv → stdout
where environment includes:
* the time at the start of the program (`builtins.currentTime`)
* other information about the machine (`builtins.currentSystem` …)
* environment variables (`builtins.getEnv`)
* the file system (`builtins.readDir`, `builtins.readFile`, …) which
is the biggest input impurity as it may change during evaluation
Additionally import from derivation and builtin fetchers are available
which introduce further impurities to be utilized.
Future work:
* Streaming I/O via lazy lists. This would allow usage of
stdin and output before the program terminates. However this would
require using libexpr directly or writing a custom nix interpreter.
A description of how this would work can be found on the website of the
esoteric programming language Lazy K: https://tromp.github.io/cl/lazy-k.html
* An effect system beyond stdin / stdout.
* Better error handling, support setting exit codes etc.
These features would require either using an alternative or custom
interpreter for nix (tvix or hnix) or to link against libexpr directly
to have more control over evaluation.

We use builtins.split directly as it should be a bit more efficient as
lib.splitStrings. Also its returning of a list for every regex match is
useful to update the state while parsing the tokens:
* The tokens are obtained by splitting the string at every '%'
* Everytime we see a boundary (that is a list in the returned
list of builtins.split), we know that the first two chars of
the next string are a percent encoded character.
One implementation flaw is that it will currently crash if it encounters
mal-formed URLs (since int.fromHex chrashes if it encounters any non
hex digit characters) and accepts some malformed urlencoding like
"foo %A".

We make use of the -O man=… option of mandoc(1) which allows to convert
cross references via the .Xr macro into actual hyperlinks in the output.
This can be disabled (by passing "none") or done in two modes:
* all: links all .Xr cross references as if they were in
$out/%N.%S.html. This will lead to broken links of course.
* inManDir: only link to files in $out if the man page is found in
manDir, use the template defined in linkXrFallback if not.
all is the default, since we don't require all man pages to be in
manDir, so it would be potentially confusing if the path attribute was
used in the pages list.
linkXrFallback uses the debian online man viewer by default currently,
since it can be decently hyperlinked and debian has a lot of packages.
Other options would be:
* https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/latest/en/man%S/%N.%S.html
* https://man.archlinux.org/man/%N.%S.en
* https://man.openbsd.org/%N.%S

htmlman is a very simple nix based static site generator which is
intended for rendering HTML representations for man pages plus an index
page listing all available pages. For the sake of simplicity (and unlike
previous iterations of this piece of code) other documentation artifacts
and formats are not supported.
Usually web services like GitHub and depot's web interface are pretty
good at displaying "normal" documentation artifacts like markdown files,
but man pages are usually not rendered — with the additional problem
that it's source is virtually unreadable. htmlman should provide a
simple static site generator which can be plugged into GitHub actions or
the like to automatically generate rendered version of man pages tracked
in version control.

users.sterni.nix.utf8 implements UTF-8 decoding in pure nix. We
implement the decoding as a simple state machine which is fed one byte
at a time. Decoding whole strings is possible by subsequently calling
step. This is done in decode which uses builtins.foldl' to get around
recursion restrictions and a neat trick using builtins.deepSeq puck
showed me limiting the size of the thunks in a foldl' (which can also
cause a stack overflow).
This makes decoding arbitrarily large UTF-8 files into codepoints using
nix theoretically possible, but it is not really practical: Decoding a
36KB LaTeX file I had lying around takes ~160s on my laptop.

switch would probably otherwise be called match, but has been renamed so
it isn't confused with string.match and the enum matching capabilities
yants has.
It implements the closest to pattern matching nix can come which is
still flexible enough to not be painful: Syntactically it works like
cond, but is given a value. Instead of booleans it checks passed
predicates or equality if simple values are passed. Both types of checks
can be mixed.

Since nix ends the substring at the end of the string anyways we can
just statically use the largest nix integer as the length of the string.
According to my testing this it ever so slightly faster as well.

What you see here is mostly the fallout of me implementing a correct
urlencode implementation in nix for Profpatsch's blog implementation
(although they'll probably keep it at arm's length).
Where I want to go from here:
* Extend this library towards general purpose nix™, mainly by
implementing missing interfaces which you'd still have to use
<nixpkgs/lib> for right now. Reexposing parts of <nixpkgs/lib>
with better naming is fine for now, at some point I'd contemplate
making this depend on nothing outside of depot, maybe even itself
(should be easy we only use yants for an easily replaceable check).
* Improve error messages possibly by carefully reintroducing yants. I
originally typed essentially everything using yants, but turns out
this can a) be dangerous when stuff you are handling throws because
type checking means evaluating and b) has a incredible performance
cost in some cases.
* Reexpose builtins with better naming and slightly wrapped so they
don't unrecoverably throw in cases where a null or something would
suffice.

This way ci should pick up on clhs-lookup since only a single derivation
is exposed with the default.nix and it is less cumbersome to type the
attribute path (users.sterni.clhs.clhs-lookup →
users.sterni.clhs-lookup). The exposed CLHS wasn't used for anything
anyways and I can always expose it again using passthru or extra if it's
ever merged.
