libraries can now work threaded if they wish (see http_requests). This means that multiple functions provided by one library can run at the same time (using thread(), see http.mers) and actually do the work they need to do simultaneously. 2023-05-09 22:11:13 +02:00			`lib mers_libs/http_requests`

changed VData system again, renamed src/script to src/lang and added src/c.mers, which is an example something that currently does not work properly due to the VData implementation (and serves as a reminder to fix the issue) 2023-05-14 00:11:36 +02:00			`sleep(0.1)`

changed assignment parser from var = statement to statement = statement left side of assignments can now be various different things instead of just variables. any statement that returns a reference can be used to assign to the value behind that reference. variables are automatically referenced, so the '&' can be omitted. if the variable contains a reference and that reference should be used, dereference it with *varname instead of just varname. 2023-05-12 00:44:47 +02:00			`t.await()`
