✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, gather round πŸ’– this one's called topformflat β€” it flattens code with balanced delimiters. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

topformflat [threshold]

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

so topformflat is this little utility that flattens code written in a language with balanced delimiters (think C, bestie, that whole family) πŸŽ€ and the way it works is: everything nested below a certain depth gets smooshed onto one single line. one line. no cap. ✨

the threshold (default: 0) is literally the main character here β€” it says at what nesting level of braces line breaks are gonna be allowed (or inserted, same energy) πŸ‘‘

  • start at 0 and you get all the top-level forms, one per line (roughly, don't come for me 😭)
  • bump the threshold up and you get finer-grained structure on each line β€” more detail, more texture, more slay πŸ’…

and the whole intent, the reason this exists at all, is so you can run the Delta minimizer on each level of granularity 🌈 like, one level at a time, very methodical of you honestly πŸ‘‘
