After further testing and help from jasonrbriggs, I found out that the error appears on all Debian Linux distributions. It works on Windows and Arch Linux, but on Ubuntu MATE (ARM), Lubuntu (x86) and Raspbian (ARM) it doesn't. Tried Python versions from 3.4 to 3.6, Nim was at the latest github

@dom96, that's a nice tool to have in the set; thanks for working on it. On OS X, the install using curl ends in an error: Prompt: Symlink for 'nimble' detected in '/Users/bpr/.nimble/bin'. Can I remove it? [y/N] Error: unhandled exception: EOF reached [EOFError]

OK, so, I found an answer on the irc. Looks like the error I'm getting isn't really an error. Though it is strange that my editor is marking it as one. Well, general suggestions are still welcome.

So, I'm trying to build a small routing library for asynchttpserver. It's kind of just for learning at the moment, but it could turn into something bigger(who knows?). I've got it working somewhat the way I want it to but I'm running into a little issue: In the following code on line

I agree with HN. By all means suggest Nim, but state your reasons for suggesting it. **@libman:** whoa. That's too far, don't call another community "Nazi scum" in here again.

HackerNews (and Slashdot) are dominated by intolerant trigger-happy nazi scum. That doesn't mean one should stop trying to inject an unorthodox opinion there once in a while, but don't get your hopes up...

@dom96 I got the same error as @hcorion originally. Linux Mint 18, Bash. It prompts you to remove it but you never get the option to hit y/N. Tries to read from a non-available stdin maybe? Great work! Any interest in changing the syntax to "choosenim head" instead of "choosenim #head". I end

I question the results when something beats C for speed. Either it is poor C code, or there is something weird going on. Sure, get close or the same, but beat C for speed? You must be doing some ASM stuff that is faster than C-generated ASM (good for them, if that is the case).
