what’s stopping me from just screenshoting
Images of text? Accessibility.
So, another sacrifice at the altar of social media to deliberately break a straightforward feature at the expense of people who need accessibility.
Social media can be such trash.
Elisp has a nice notation for maintainably composing regexes like any other programming expression.
Only language I’ve seen offer that.
So instead of "/\\*\\(?:[^*]\\|\\*[^/]\\)*\\*+/", the regular expression to match C block comments could be expressed (with inline comments)
(rx "/*" ; Initial /*
(zero-or-more
(or (not (any "*")) ; Either non-*,
(seq "*" ; or * followed by
(not (any "/"))))) ; non-/
(one-or-more "*") ; At least one star,
"/") ; and the final /
🤦 Can we get this in actual text or maybe a cool link to the actual content for those of us who need it for accessibility & the rest of us who don’t like trying to read pixelated garbage? Screenshots of text are such a scourge. 😭
Possible, unlikely, worse. The most accessible content is native text with the full content structure of the original. Quoting without compromises & feeble games would be better.
