Hello Tildes. I've been sitting on this project for almost a year, and I was just now able to get over my perfectionism and publish. With all the talk of Excel being "finally Turing complete" around the time that LAMBDAs came to be, I was surprised that nobody bothered to sit down and use them to make an actual Turing machine.

P.S. If you end up writing your own programs for this or find any bugs, I wanna know! Feel free to reply to this thread or shoot me a message elsewhere (links are on my index.html).

Haha, no. I write my pages mostly in Markdown. They get run through a python script that converts them to HTML, combines them with a template, and copies the output to my /var/www. It lets me mix Markdown and HTML in the same source document so I can do 80% of what I need in Markdown and the other 20% that's a bit more complex can use HTML tags no problem. For example, here's what this article looks like. The only thing had to use HTML for was the image, which was just an img tag.
ok wicked! I love it. I might do something similar. I have nothing to offer the world in a format like this, but I do need a place to take some notes. :)

This is supercool, Jake. Thanks!

off topic, are you using a CMS? It so simple and perfect.
