-- The simplest possible Orchid program that visibly does something. Technically not the absolute
-- shortest in terms of bytes, but the extraneous code is purely for programmer convenience and
-- doesn't translate into any runtime code.
-- Not strictly necessary. Brings `console` into module scope.
import! orchid.console;
-- The entry point. It is technically a procedure, but since it's got special properties, it has a
-- special keyword to declare it.
main! {
-- Other procedures can be invoked via the `call! PROC [ARGS...]` statement.
call! console.write_line "Hello, Orchid!";
