❝Across all Scheme projects on Ohloh, 10% of all source code lines are comments. For rudybot, this figure is only 4%. This lack of comments puts rudybot among the lowest one-third of all Scheme projects on Ohloh.❞

I'd add comments to specific bits if anyone asked me to, but I sure as **\ ain't gonna just add 'em willy-nilly to satisfy some automated thingy that I've never heard of.

ok, ok; point.

Still...

[Minimum one-line comment per function (";; This function mulches the rarg and returns its blitz; urds are ignored.") is a habit that was well beaten into me when working for the FSF. I find it difficult to write code without doing that now...]

BTW does rudybot run anywhere except #emacs...?
