folders's Introduction

What I do

I make work about human irrationality, usually in confrontation with logical systems.

What You'll Find Here

My favorite medium is the esolang: programming language design as a means of expression and experimentation. A few examples:

  • Folders (2015), where code is written only in the combination of folders within folders, ignoring files and text

  • FatFinger (2017), a dialect of JavaScript that forgives, and encourages, typos and misspellings

  • Entropy (2010), where data decays the more it is used, with programs that slowly slip out of the programmer's control

  • Olympus (2022), where we code in incantations to the gods -- a language that better reflects the actual power dynamic of programmer and machine

  • Time Out (2015), where code is written in the increments of time that lines of code in another language take to run

  • There are many more, some public here already, others to release with my book in late 2025

For ten years, I wrote about esolangs for my blog, esoteric.codes.

folders's Issues

Dir order wrong in Parallels

Running in Parallels, with the directories in the Mac volume, the directories are sometimes read in the wrong order (not alphabetical). An explicit sort by name should fix this.

99 bottles program final folder doesn't seem to make sense

Hey there, cool esolang! I'm actually trying to write a python interpreter for it for fun ๐Ÿ˜„

Anyways, and this may be something I'm not understanding, but in your example 99 bottles program the final command folder is New Folder (4) which has the following structure (limited to depth 3):

New folder (4)
     โ””โ”€โ”€ New folder (2)
         ย ย           โ””โ”€โ”€ New Folder
         ย ย           โ””โ”€โ”€ New Folder (2)
         ย ย           โ””โ”€โ”€ New Folder (3)

Doesn't every command folder need at least two subfolders?
Also, assuming New folder (2) is an expression folder (because if we interpret it as such we get a LITERAL :: STRING :: 2 bottles of beer on the wall...) then I'm assuming you'd want New Folder (4) to have a PRINT statement?

For example I would have assumed the following structure:

New folder (4)
     โ””โ”€โ”€ New folder (1)
                     โ””โ”€โ”€ [ 4 subfolders to make it a PRINT statement ]
     โ””โ”€โ”€ New folder (2)
         ย ย           โ””โ”€โ”€ New Folder
         ย ย           โ””โ”€โ”€ New Folder (2)
         ย ย           โ””โ”€โ”€ New Folder (3)

Asking so I can make my interpreter spec-compliant lol

example program lacks bang

the example program lacks the ! in Hello World!

Also, this looks more like a mac OS program to me. Will it cross compile?
