Split the flat 38-file selfhost/ into concern-based subdirectories:
frontend/ lex, parse, parse_game, ast
support/ str, buf, io
backend/ core IR + expression/statement lowering
backend/game/ ECS/scene/event/world lowering
backend/stdlib/ the namespaced Math.*/Text.*/Crypto.*/… intrinsics
and split the three oversized emitters at responsibility boundaries so
no file mixes concerns:
emit_game.ludic -> + emit_world.ludic (reflection world table,
tick helpers, @main synthesis)
emit_expr.ludic -> + emit_call.ludic (namespaced builtins, call
lowering, expr dispatch)
emit_text.ludic -> + emit_text_prelude.ludic (emitted string-builder runtime)
FRAGS in tools/x/selfhost.ludic is updated to the new paths with the link
order preserved, and the Python doc/vocabulary tooling is updated to walk
the new layout. Because the build is a plain in-order concatenation and
every split lands on a blank-line boundary, the regenerated seed is
byte-identical: `x reseed` leaves selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll unchanged,
`x bootstrap-cfree` still reaches its fixed point, and both `x test` (56)
and `x selfhost-test` (29, incl. golden renders) stay green.
Closes#29

A cohesive filesystem & IO library — the foundation for saves, config, mods, and
asset loading — wrapping the bare file_* builtins into one safe, ergonomic API a
non-expert can use without touching a file descriptor or a byte buffer.
Path.* join / dir / base / ext / stem / normalize (pure lexical string ops)
Fs.* exists / is_dir / read_text / write_text / append_text / remove /
size / mkdir / copy / list
Mime.* of (extension table) / sniff (magic bytes: PNG/JPEG/GIF/PDF)
Pure string IR for Path.*; libc (fopen/access/mkdir/rename/opendir…) for Fs.*;
C-free, emitted on demand (g_uses_fsrt). Safety and determinism baked in:
- write_text and copy are atomic (write a temp file, then rename over the target)
so a crash mid-write never corrupts the previous file;
- mkdir creates parents (mkdir -p);
- list is sorted for a stable, reproducible directory walk;
- fallible calls return values (null / false / -1), never crashes — ready for a
first-class try/else when the error-handling work lands.
Complements Os.* (#21): Os supplies per-user locations, Fs the operations. v1
targets the native macOS/BSD filesystem with "/" separators; Windows separators,
a sandboxed wasm virtual FS, recursive directory copy, and richer magic-byte
sniffing are documented follow-ups.
- examples/library/fs.ludic: 32 assertions across pure Path ops (incl. normalize
resolving ./ .. and duplicate slashes), a real create/read/append/copy/list/
remove cycle under build/, and Mime by-extension + by-magic (GIF signature vs a
.bin extension). Wired into `x test` (now 56 passed).
- docs: new Path, Fs, and Mime sections + 18 per-symbol pages; inventory updated;
every fence passes check-docs; site builds via docgen.
- seed regenerated; `x bootstrap-cfree` fixpoint holds.
Closes#10
