Latin phrases upon exit
[edit]These phrases might appear from other inputs in the interpreter; I wrote down the commands I put in and was able to repeatedly get those results.I think we should include a section on these phrases; if anyone knows more about this subject feel free to weigh in.
When the user exits the interpreter it prints a line of text in latin: "Fortitudine vincimus." which translates to "Through endurance we conquer" Which is likely a joke regarding how tedious the scheme language can be. This phrase appears when any commands other than display are used, or when more than 5 commands are used.
When only using the (display ) command it prints phrases such as
"Happy happy joy joy!" - printed after only one command is run
"Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam."- printed after 2 commands. Latin for "Carthage must be destroyed" link
"Pulvis et umbra sumus." - printed after 3 commands. Latin for "We are dust and shadow". link
"Post proelium, praemium." -
"..#]^@^@^@ NO CARRIER" after 4 commands. bug?
"Moriturus te saluto." 5 commands
