@zvava@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Iâm not entirely sure about the spaces, but maybe they were omitted to simplify parsing of mentions in the form of @<nick url>. If the next token after the @<nick does not look like a URL, itâs not a mention but regular text. This is just wild guessing, though.
Looking at the regex and tests in the original twtxt reference implementation seems to confirm that theory in the sense as it relies on whitespace as the delimiter:

Another thing about nicks is that the original twtxt reference implementation converts nicks to all lowercase:

You probably know this already, the original twtxt file format specification can be found here: https://twtxt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/twtxtfile.html
As for extensions, I donât know of anything outside of twtxt.dev that has actually been (partially) implemented. However, there is also the issue tracker of the official reference implementation. You might wanna dig through that. For example, there is an alternative suggestions of multiline messages: https://github.com/buckket/twtxt/issues/157

18 rules of Software Engineering
- You will regret complexity when on-call
- Stop falling in love with your own code
- Everything is a trade-off. Thereâs no âbestâ 3. Every line of code you write is a liability 4. Document your decisions and designs
- Everyone hates code they didnât write
- Donât use unnecessary dependencies
- Coding standards prevent arguments
- Write meaningful commit messages
- Donât ever stop learning new things
- Code reviews spread knowledge
- Always build for maintainability
- Ask for help when youâre stuck
- Fix root causes, not symptoms
- Software is never completed
- Estimates are not promises
- Ship early, iterate often
- Keep. It. Simple.
Solid list, even though 14 is up for debate in my opinion: Software can be completed. You have a use case / problem, you solve that problem, done. Your software is completed now. There might still be bugs and they should be fixed â but this doesnât âaddâ to the program. Donât use âsoftware is never doneâ as an excuse to keep adding and adding stuff to your code.
