It's all pretty solid except for the part about OO. Inheritance almost never works in "the real world" but I find being able to tie functions to the data they're expected to work on to be pretty helpful. It's sort o

There are genuinely moments where something in the hell-stack of terminal-bash-ssh-tmux is slow enough that rendering speed is affected and its annoying. Is this fixable by using a gpu? Probably not, but I'm willing to give it a try!
