Expand the abbreviated pointer types to full words on the language surface: ptr -> pointer (a raw address / FFI handle) ptrs -> pointers (a buffer of pointers) The Ludic type name is distinct from LLVM's own `ptr` spelling: llty() maps `pointer`/`pointers` to LLVM `ptr`, and the emitted IR keeps `ptr`, so only the Ludic-level surface changes. Rewrites type annotations across all sources, the 8 hardcoded pointer type-tags, the `pointers`-buffer indexing in emit_addr, the grammars/LSP/JetBrains tokens, and the docs (type-ptr -> type-pointer, type-ptrs -> type-pointers). int/bool keep their conventional short spelling (like Math). Reseeded; C-free fixpoint holds; all suites green (45/24/29); site + check.py OK. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

| fn-file_stderr | file_stderr | builtins | builtin | file_stderr | file_stderr() -> pointer | The standard-error stream handle for use with file_write. | 50 |
Returns the handle for the standard-error stream, which you pass to file_write to emit raw bytes. Writing diagnostics and error messages here keeps them separate from normal program output on standard out, so a tool's real results are not mixed with its warnings. It takes no arguments and always refers to the process's standard error. Use it for the error side of command-line tools written in Ludic.
program WarnToStderr {
handler CheckArgs phase Start {
if arg_count() < 2 {
let err = file_stderr()
let message = "missing argument\n"
file_write(err, message, len(message))
exit(1)
}
print("ok")
}
}
