I'm still trying to find a sweet spot between 'show the general syntax' and 'show a concrete example' in the CLI docs for difftastic. https://difftastic.wilfred.me.uk/usage.html I'm currently showing the syntax, immediately followed by an example. What do you think?

I've added an eval button to the website of my programming language! It's a been a lot of work to lock down appropriately. It still needs some UI polish but it's so nice to be able to try snippets immediately.

Took me a while to figure out how to debug a hanging Rust test. The best invocation seems to be: $ RUST_TEST_THREADS=1 cargo test -- --nocapture This will print test names before execution, so you can see where you're hanging. --nocapture lets you see print output immediately.
