The experience of using Node.JS with TypeScript, ts-node, and ESM is horrible.

There are countless guides of how to integrate them, but none of them seem to work.

Here's what worked for me.

Just add the following files and run npm run dev. You'll be good to go!

`package.json`

In case of Sublime Text, the mouse actions are configured by what are known as mousemap files (that have a file extension of .sublime-mousemap). You can have generally 2 variants of these files :-

Default.sublime-mousemap: This will define mouse actions for any platform.
Default ($platform).sublime-mousemap: This will define mouse actions for a specific platform, where $platform is any one of Windows, Linux or OSX depending on your operating system.

You can view the default shipped mousemap files by using View Package File from the command palette and searching for mousemap.

In order to define your own mouse actions (or override any existing actions), you have to create a file by the name of Default.sublime-mousemap in the User directory (to get to this directory, select Preferences -> Browse Packages ... from the main menu) for platform independent override (or Default ($platform).sublime-mousemap for platform dependent overrides depending on your OS).

Obfuscating Lua

I've had some fun ruining Python recently, but Python is what I use at work. I prefer to use other languages when I'm doing stuff for fun.

And obfuscation only really makes sense in fun and competition - given a suffeciently determined actor, your code will be reverse engineered. Unless you write it in Malboge.

For this particular experiment, I'll be using Lua 5.3. As I'll probably need to dive into some of the less portable functions to commit our atrocities, I can't guarantee it will run on other popular versions like Luajit or 5.1.
