Project complete! I added a bit of a cli interface to my cataloguing utility written in lil for today's installment of the #DecemeberAdventure.
I could for certain take it farther, and might down the road, but going to call this very tiny project wrapped and move on to something new -- not 100% certain where I'll go next, but I've started collecting some ideas.
While I haven't done much, and this project was admittedly very very very very tiny, it feels weird (in a good way) to be so productive in such a teeny tiny language.
