Agenda

• arrow update (sophia)
• not precedence
• Force main to always follow module structure
  • would require export def main
  • not allowed in free-form scripts anymore
  • cleans up semantics (no more running of main after the script)
  • avoids weird things like def 'main subcommand' in scripts which does not work in modules
• backup plan / strategy if lscolors does not land rather soon which is currently blocking testing new Reedline PRs
• code duplication in reedline 706 - Yash
