femtoemacs / nimacros Goto Github PK

Hello,

I was disheartened to see all the nimacros book content being deleted.

Can you please bring that back? I was quite thrilled to see this project and the ongoing progress.

What triggered this drastic step? How can the Nim community help?

Have you considered using readthedocs linked with github?

I wonder why you are using makefiles with Nim. They're certainly useful with C/C++ where building is separated into the compilation of individual files, followed by linking. But with Nim the compiler takes care of all of this. Not only that but they're a bit clunky to use (but that's just me) and aren't the most portable thing in the world (though you don't seem to care much for that, admitedly most users on MS Windows will compile Nim with mingw, which includes make).
And at last, there is an alternative to make for Nim, which ships with Nim: Nimscript which is used in Nimble which also comes with every Nim installation.
