I love moonscript, it makes lua feel so much more usable for me. Admittedly, I'm mostly only using it for convenience in configuring apps(such as my WM¹/video player²/etc).
If you want to see a large-ish example of what you can do with moonscript the howl editor³ is a great example. It is also a nice extensible editor in its own right, including a very usable vi mode.

- chatmasta 7y agoOff topic, but just curious, what makes you choose mpv over VLC?
- JNRowe 7y agoNo particularly good reason. I have no use for the vlc gui, so mpv is fine for me. At a push I'd perhaps say the lighter dependency stack is a plus, but if mpv didn't exist I'd probably install vlc without thinking about it. FWIW, apt wants me to install 36 new packages for vlc even with --no-install-recommends. edit: Or - I guess - some other scriptable media player, as being extensible is the thing that matters to me. Unless someone magically matches my quirks with their non-scriptable player ;)
