- `[a, b, c]` list literals (E_LIST → emit_list); static_type learns
slice-element, `new T`, list, string and literal kinds
- `x op= y` lowers through the same path as `x = x op y` (emit_bin_vals):
fixed `*=`/`/=` use the Q16.16 64-bit paths, string `+=` concatenates,
int→long widens; unary `-` keeps a fixed operand's type (arith_ty)
- one `unescape()` table for "strings", 'chars' and `interpolation`;
`'\''`, `'\\'`, `'\"'` no longer read as 0; unterminated char literals
and unexpected characters are errors instead of silently skipped
- every diagnostic is `file:line: error: msg` (g_parse_file / g_err_file,
Node.file + Node.line set by node()); tok_desc() in expectation errors;
duplicate `function` names and unknown `phase` names are reported in
source terms (phase_id used to default unknown phases to Overlay)
- interpolation holes skip braces inside string literals
- hand-IR preludes move from the user `@fn_` prefix to `@lp_` so a user
`is_ws` / `str_eq` / `path_join` no longer collides at link time
- `@ClearColor(expr)` accepts any constant expression; `Os.pid()` added
(docs page + inventory); `str_starts()` in support/str
- main.ludic: `else if` flag ladder, char literals, stale script comments
- examples/lang/operators.ludic covers all of the above; os.ludic covers
Os.pid; docs pages for Os.pid and the Overlay phase; ten changesets
- reseeded: selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll is the new compiler's own fixpoint

Registry-izes the two hooks that made stdlib namespaces and engine systems
compiler-hardcoded, so a package registers them with no compiler edit — the
Phase-1 prerequisite for shipping the controller libraries (#58–#61) as real
packages rather than in-repo stdlib.
- Engine systems are a data-driven registry (component, esys-fn, phase). The
core three (SpriteAnim/Motion — Update, Light2D — Render) are seeded in that
exact order, so uses_engine_systems / emit_engine_systems_for_phase are now
registry-driven with byte-identical output (verified: anim_ecs, light_ecs,
snake IR unchanged; 87/0 golden renders; C-free fixpoint holds). A package
appends with `@EngineSystem(Component, Phase)` on its esys function.
- Namespaces are a registry too: a package marks a provider with
`@Namespace(Foo)`, and emit_ns_call aliases an otherwise-unknown Foo.method to
the bare foo_method (the same generic path the core namespaces use) — after
every hardcoded core block, so core dispatch is untouched.
- Both annotations are keyword-free (like #64's @System), so no vocabulary /
grammar churn.
Proven end-to-end (hermetic, source path, runs everywhere): a package registers
Score + esys_score via @EngineSystem and coach_bonus via @Namespace; a consumer
game imports it and prints "4 99" — the engine system ran each Update and
Coach.bonus() dispatched, with no compiler edit for the package. Package suite
18/0.
Core stdlib namespaces stay on their optimized hardcoded blocks by design
(byte-identity + determinism); the generic path is proven to carry a namespace
and packages ride it.

Adds the ECS hook issues #43 and #47 named as their real dependency: a
system the *engine* owns, inserted into the frame loop over a component a
game merely declares and carries — no `handler` wired.
- runtime/native/systems.ludic: esys_spriteanim (SpriteAnim frame advance:
loop/once/pingpong) and esys_motion (Motion value tween: linear/in/out/
in-out), both on the by-name reflection ABI, integer + deterministic.
- backend: emit_engine_systems_for_phase inserts the calls after every user
handler in a phase (auto-loop and the drivable tick helpers alike);
uses_engine_systems() drives the systems.ludic splice, the world-table
force-emit, and makes a component-only game count as a systems game.
- A game that declares neither component is byte-for-byte unchanged.
Worked example + regression: examples/library/anim_ecs.ludic. Full suite
73 passed, self-host C-free bootstrap fixpoint intact.

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
