+# Before we begin, a few notes
+# - All objects are strings
+# - There are a few different kinds of objects.
+#   - variables which have a static value they always evaluate to
+#   - lazies (contained by curlies (`{' and `}')) lazilly evaluate the lines
+#     within themselves only when nessicary. They may take arguments the same
+#     way commands do
+#   - commands, which are essentially lazies behind the mask of a variable name
+#   - strings, contained by a backtick to open (``') and a single quote to close
+#     (`\'').
+# - Each line begins with any object
+#   - builtin commands are always 3 characters long
+#   - the starting object is followed by a space, then the arguments, which are
+#     space seperated objects
+#   - the arguments are passed to the first object
+#     - variables and strings ignore these arguments
+#     - commands and lazies may access these arguments with the `arg' command
+# - interpolation, either within a variable name, command name, or string, is 
+#   done with the `<...>' syntax.
+#   - The arrows, as they're called, evaluate the line inside them, then insert
+#     that value into the variable name/command name/string.
+#   - thus a lone `<varname>' on a line evaluates to the value of the variable
+#     that is named by varname.
+#     - To say that backwards, varname contains the name of a variable, and that
+#       variable has a value, and that value is what we're getting.
+# - When a object begins with a bang (`!'), if object being evaluated sets any
+#   variables, it sets them within the current scope.
+# - Variable and function names are stripped of bangs and spaces.
+# - Booleans don't exist. Instead, any string that is empty (`') is truthy and
+#   all other (non-empty) strings are falsey.
+# - Numbers are strings in the formats:
+#   - `[+\-]?real(\.dec)?[+\-]imag(\.dec)?i'
+#   - `[+\-]?real(\.dec)?'
+#   - `[+\-]?imag(\.dec)?i'
+#   - where, imag is the immaginary part, real is the real part, and the .dec is
+#     the decimal part of the one it appears to the right of.
+#   - These strings are in any base from 3 to 19.
+#     - bases 20+ are reserved since they would involve the letter i (which
+#       denotes the immaginary part)
+#     - the current base is defined by the 'base' variable, which is always in
+#       base 2.
+#     - base 2 is reserved for no good reason.
+#     - all bases lower than two are reserved because they're inconveinent to
