Also each line starts with a semicolon and you have to escape spaces in strings using a double forward slash

I realized a while ago that there's nothing stopping me from writing rust like this

;println!("This is great")
;println!("I think everyone should write rust like this")
;println!("Probably works in most languages that use semicolons")
;
