The new tutorial
http://felix-lang.org/web/nutut/intro/intro_index.fdoc
is going well. However if you want the latest version you have to run

Ok so this now works: you write a file:
tut.fdoc
and you can use the tangler program to make
tut.flx
tut.expect
So you c

This is hard for me!

For that audience (and I'll hold myself up as an example),
probably. The actual presentation is more suited to people
coming from something like Ocaml, IMO.

I don't really see Felix's target being "C++ programmers" per se, but
more so "people who would really rather program in some other language
but need the speed / libraries / etc. that C++ offers". At lea
