Dunlin is a GTK-based Webkit browser which can be extended in (indeed,
is mostly written in) [Fennel](https://www.fennel-lang.org).

## Hacking

        $ nix-shell
        nix-shell$ overmind start -D
        nix-shell$ overmind connect


This starts a Fennel interpreter and a test runner in tmux windows. Use `C-b n`
to switch between them or `C-b d` to detach.

        $ fennel dunlin.fnl &
        $ ./repl.sh


Dunlin will open a socket in `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` to allow communication
with a Fennel REPL. The repl.sh script uses
[socat](http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/) to connect to it.
