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

An Os.* namespace, Go-flavored and game-scoped, for the environment *around*
the game: the command line, environment variables, standard streams, process
exit, the host platform, and the per-user known folders a game writes into.
Rounds the bare System.* builtins (arg/getenv/exit) into one coherent surface.
- args / arg_count / arg the argument vector (args() -> []string)
- env / env_or / has_env read env vars (null-safe via env_or)
- set_env / unset_env mutate this process's environment
- exit(code) terminate with a status code
- platform() / arch() host facts (uname sysname/machine)
- stdout_write / stderr_write raw writes to the standard streams
- save_dir / config_dir / cache_dir / temp_dir per-user known folders
Pure libc over NUL-terminated strings; C-free, no new runtime. arg_count/arg/
exit stay light (no prelude) as thin aliases of the existing intrinsics; the
rest share one Os runtime prelude emitted on demand (g_uses_osrt). platform()
is portable (uname system name is field 0 on every Unix); arch() and the
known-folder layout follow the macOS/BSD conventions — the fully supported
native target today. Linux/Windows/wasm folder resolution and a target-aware
arch() are documented follow-ups.
- examples/library/os.ludic: asserts the invariants that hold regardless of
host — env round-trip, env_or fallback, unset, args()==arg_count(), non-empty
platform/arch and known dirs. Wired into `x test` (now 54 passed).
- docs: a new Os section + 17 per-symbol pages; inventory updated; every fence
passes check-docs (--fmt) and the site builds via docgen.
- seed regenerated; `x bootstrap-cfree` fixpoint holds.
Closes#21
