I'm coming round to the view that a main function shouldn't take arguments. For example, in Rust you have to call std::env::args() to get CLI arguments. This makes Hello World less verbose, and gives you more flexibility in setting up CLI argument parsers.

I really like pattern matching in Rust, but I find myself using it less and less. `if let` and `let ... else` require substantially less indentation, and I often use them for Option values. I don't miss this syntactic sugar in OCaml though. Maybe it's just because OCaml has a 2 space indent, unlike Rust's 4 space indent?

An ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of a text adventure game -- or as I like to call it, a compiler.
