Is it possible to enable "Discussions" for this repo? That way newbies like me can ask stupid questions like "How can I loop over all .json files?" IMO, the issue tracker is not the right place for this.

I think it's ok for the time being for you to post it here, we could eventually add it as an FAQ on the website. The forum would be really nice but tbh I don't have a lot of time as it stands, and looking both at the issue tracker and the forum would not end up great 😃

How can I loop over all .json files?

➜  /tmp cd loop-json 
➜  loop-json echo "{}" > x.json
➜  loop-json echo "null" > y.json
➜  loop-json echo "" > z.txt
➜  loop-json abs
Hello alex, welcome to the ABS (2.6.0) programming language!
Type 'quit' when you're done, 'help' if you get lost!
⧐  for file in `ls *.json`.lines() { echo("${file}: %s", `cat ${file}`) }
x.json: {}
y.json: null
⧐

I understand. Thanks for considering my request.

I realized that this program will not run on Windows because ls is not recognized. So how can we loop over files independent of the OS?
