__curPos in Nixpkgs is used as a implementation detail for something but nil treats its reference as a missing variable. I want to eventually bring nil to nixpkgs as a ci step but this is a blocker as far as I know |

I don't think there are any other ones, but here's the code: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/src/f324574265f5d90fca1d18311c0ebb057116db0e/lix/libexpr/parser/parser-impl1.inc.cc#L403-L410 It's documented here: https://docs.lix.systems/manual/lix/stable/language/constructs.html#keywords-__curPos It would be mostly correct for nil to treat it as a builtin. The type of its output is known. |

Notice that it's not a
builtinbut a keyword, I don't know where it should be added in thenilcodebase. Also notice that probably there could be other keywords, it would be nice having a test or something that runsnix eval --expr "builtins.attrNames builtins" --jsonto check if we are considering all thebuiltins(if something similar isn't already done). I don't know if a similar introspection is possible also for keywords.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
