-- The compiler:  a game description to a Singe game (FORGE.md).
--
-- A description is data -- kinds, rooms, and rules -- and what comes out is a Lua script that
-- calls the runtime in Author.singe.  The rules become real functions:  a condition is a Lua
-- expression, an action a statement, and a rule with an action that takes time a coroutine.  The
-- description travels with the game so it can be opened again;  nothing is lost in either
-- direction.
--
-- Written in Lua rather than as a util/ script because the editor is itself a Singe game and has to
-- compile what it is editing without leaving the engine.  It lives with Forge rather than in Singe/
-- because only building needs it;  Author.singe, the runtime a built game loads, travels with the
-- game -- a copy is written beside it when it is built -- so a game handed to someone who has never
-- installed Forge still runs.

-- Where the runtime is taken from when a game is built.  Forge carries it;  a game gets a copy.
