Things like at the top of this document: https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/language/constructs/lookup-path

I don't want to call them grammar because we're still far away from actually formalising any of that

ah cool, so a little BNF like thing

@asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.ukasymmetricthis is kinda neat https://landscape.nixlang.wiki/11:33:10
@bzzm3r:matrix.org@bzzm3r:matrix.org ran nix-shell in nixpkgs/docs/ a while....still compiling 🤣 23:13:54
@bzzm3r:matrix.org@bzzm3r:matrix.orgmy guess is that....oh, yeah23:14:05
@bzzm3r:matrix.org@bzzm3r:matrix.org i think i know why. i forgot to set npins up 23:14:23
@bzzm3r:matrix.org@bzzm3r:matrix.org No, I don't think that's it. The shell uses the parent nixpkgs repo as its nixpkgs...which causes my system to have to work quite hard, I suppose because build artifacts for master are not yet up on cachix? 🤔 23:33:59
@bzzm3r:matrix.org@bzzm3r:matrix.orgNot entirely clear on that point for now, but I have a workaround.23:34:38

@bzzm3r:matrix.org@bzzm3r:matrix.org(i'm not actually sure if it's useful, but...nothing lost, i suppose, in seeing if there is interest)02:39:12
