if Linux so good why they didn't made Linux 2???
See, there Windows 11(eleven) not just one silly version...

I fucken did it.
It works, I added a try statement to the go compiler

i am literally shaking, my hands are shaking

a story of pain

So the syntax is not the same as the one i used last time, changed it up a bit to make things easier. Here is the current version, that's working.

content, err := ioutil.ReadFile(filename)
try err or string

so the try statement expects two values

1. the error variable
2. the type of the return value (this is needed because go has this convention of returning the zero value of a type incase of an error)

so the above syntax gets expanded into the following

if err != nil {
    return make([]string, 1)[0], err
}

I have ascended beyond the mortal plain.
And golang devs you are welcome.

i really wish some of you all could run it and try it out, i am using nix to setup the environment. The readme has instructions to build it from source, if you use nix.

This is what watching Jonathan Blow clips telling you to do hard stuff does to a person. 😂

Also implemented an unwrap statement that panics when the error is not nil.

from this

unwrap err

to this

if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

Take pride in your effort, not your talents.
