[urbit] Re: [urbit/docs] adds rune-form twig expansions (#55)

[Curtis Yarvin]

The expansions are always hygienic! Good lord! "Young man, I don't know
what you're talking about. My equations are correct." I also note that he
or she who understands ;~, understands everything.

It's pretty cool how deep into Arvo you've gotten in 2 weeks. Has it only
been 2 weeks?

Not to push my luck too far, but one thing that would be really neat is if
you can produce a small retrospective essay on the general experience of
learning to program in Hoon/Urbit. We'd love to put any such thing up on
the blog urbit.org (by anyone who wants to write one, not just Joe...)

I've made a pass at the advanced synthetic twigs, adding explicitly-marked
pseudocode expansions, and separately titled Compiler Macro -- the best
heading I could come up with... I've also added notes about macro-hygiene
where the expansions appear to be non-hygienic.
And, on a personal note, it's pretty cool how much more sense these all
make after 2 weeks ;)

Or at least, either hygienic or biblical :P
