OCaml multline strings which use this syntax {| |} are not properly escaped and they break the syntax highlighting on GitHub.

Somebody reported it to GitHub back in December 2022 but they still haven't fixed it. This is what it feels like existing in a niche.

[the bug report]
[how i found out]

I often find myself opening a random episode of a series on my pc.

I first wrote shell aliases for opening them but then after sometime that became inconvenient so i started using keybindings to open the random episodes. But then i thought i should create a little program to make it easier instead.

So i wrote watchbox, i wrote it in OCaml because i felt like i was forgetting the lang since it had been a long time since i last used it. Watchbox is a very small program. It only does opening a random episode for now and it uses mpv to actually open the videos.

Peeps do you star your repos, I star all of mine.

That's what i call self-love 😂
