If so, then: @[anyone else] That should be a bug, shouldn't it?
`await` gets you the content of a `Future`.
`discard` just discards whatever you pass as argument.
`proc` with `{.async.}` always return `Future`.
(usually compiler wont let you just discard/not use stuff).
`-d:release` wont generate those, not sure I understand tho... 樂

Your `server` is `AsyncSocket`.
You can pass `port = Port(9000)` too.
Nim is style agnostic.
`bindAddr(server, Port(9000))` will work too.

That seems very improbably. It's more likely that you have a stack overflow and

Am I right in thinking that this will only work with the refcount gc, and not

Yes, it didn't work. However the graphics on the picture was really nice,

If there is a need for .epub format, I can see if I can make one officially
available.
This version does type-checking (correctly pointing to procedure definition),
and allows that simple method invocation syntax.
type

drafts in epub.
