In reply to @347online:matrix.org

Hello. I have a question about prior art in Nix language RFCs/pre-RFCs of if anyone had anyone had ever proposed something along the lines of Regex Literals?
Considering that the Lix project is interested in evolving the language[1][2], I figured this might be a good place to ask?

(Wasn't sure if this moreso belonged here or in Development)

This would be nice to have, but the pile of things that need cleanup first it daunting

@piegames:flausch.socialpiegamesIn an ideal world, we'd get dedicated custom string types with sanity checking and user-defined in pure Nix via macro-like features. In this world, be happy if we get annotated string types so that you can run a linter on it07:07:02

@neindochoh:catgirl.cloudneindochoh! / Seti (they/them)thanks for sharing this hint! :) this makes things like neovim configuration inside nix files soo much more readable for me.18:17:26
