yes queen, that's the whole synopsis. you just hand it a filename. that's it. that's the vibe check and it passed 🌸

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

RETRO is a modern, pragmatic Forth drawing influences from many sources. it's clean, elegant, tiny, and easy to grasp and adapt to various uses. genuinely iconic behavior — small, pretty, and you can bend it to whatever you want 🫶

retro-muri is an assembler for Nga, the virtual machine at the heart of Retro. it's the thing that builds the image file containing the actual Retro language. so like, Nga is the main character energy underneath everything, and muri is the one assembling for it 🔥

this will extract the code blocks in the specified file and generate an image file named ngaImage. that's the whole plot: you give it a file, it pulls out the code blocks, and out pops ngaImage ✨

lowkey important: the output file is always called ngaImage — that's the name, don't come for me, I'm just the messenger 💀
