String map down

The following pastiche is best read while listening to Jimmy Vaughan‘s studio version of Six Strings Down, with suitable apologies to all parts:

Yal'-N-U-S,
In the middle of the term
string_map_down
Intro C-S in germ
Got a disk, a pad, berries in our bag
Ain't gonna cut O-Caml no slack

String get dot called
Another char-acter at home

See the tutorial
Control-h t read
Auto 'pleting for you coder
Welcome to the breed

U-nit testin'
Ditto nar-rating
Emacs, Meta and Control
Been boostin' all our learnin'

String get dot called
Another char-acter mapped home

Lo, get called
Another char-acter mapped home

[instrumental]

Another char-acter mapped home

Edsger Dijk-stra's up there
Alan and Robin too
John Reynolds and Landin
Control-x 2
Backus, Naur, Curry, Church
Christo-pher Strachey and John Mc-Car-thy

String get dot called
Another char-acter mapped home

Lo, get called
Another char-acter mapped home

Lo, get called
Another char-acter mapped home

Tail called
Another char-acter mapped home

[instrumental, closing]
The fourth wall (wistfully): Last night, I dreamed of Stevie Ray Vaughan interpreting “Six Strings Down”.
The fifth wall: Sounds heavenly.
The fourth wall: Twas.
The fifth wall: Was it solo?
The fourth wall: Actually no. He was playing with Art Neville.
Jimmy Vaughan: What a beautiful dream.
Mimer: Mr. Vaughan, thanks for coming by!
