Lua has many dialects, and I love them all ❤️
But how to write one lua-file and target them all?
Answer: metaprogramming

Here's a small ~700 bytes gpp-ish metaprogramming awk script 🎉

#OneNationLite = COALition #auspol

#AngusTaylor says ‘bad people coming from bad countries’.

Taylor said #indigenous #WelcomeToCountry ceremonies were overused, after booing incidents at some of Saturday’s #AnzacDay #DawnServices. He also defended #preferencing #OneNation above the #independent community candidate, #MichelleMilthorpe (not a #Teal), in the upcoming #Farrer #byelection, arguing the Teals “vote with the #Greens”.

For folks interested in #GeminiProtocol, #Lua, or #Teal
gemcat - an app that downloads gemini: pages
gemlib - a library of gemini: access code
are both now written in Teal, a statically-typed dialect of Lua.
Both the Teal and Lua code is included, so you can use whichever you like.

Note: This is gemini the network protocol, it has nothing to do with Google's Gemini AI.

And everyday Australians—the people who live with the consequences—are sidelined from decisions about their future.
