Drawn

Just thinking of how my codebase starts to randomly grow waaay over me, I'm feeling completely drawn into this (just by the look absolutely lovable) book ... fantastic Sunday :D

Best be noted that the one proof of living in a simulation that stands quite firmly in my opinion is that galloping horses have 4 legs by visual, but 3 if you carefully check the audio stream.

Update: hard proof

God knows how much earlier it could've been done if it was communicated to be outstanding and that it's just a matter of an checkbox tick... 😠

By the way I'd like to kindly ask all team members: please please please avoid wrongfully marking issues as "complete" in the tracker. Many thanks in advance!

os.system vs. line continuation on Windows :\

(note to self)

So at least in the Windows style (and of course actually on Windows), Python's os.system does not much enjoy the there accepted ^ symbols that otherwise are meant to mark lines of a batch file that would continue in the next, even if these are used for the purpose correctly -- and they otherwise work fine even if pasted into a command line shell.

Could be that it was the cr+lf's that halted the parsing at the end of the first line? Maybe someone will find out and publish.

For me, just one more lesson learnt the hard way ... :)
