Is there a system for ensuring the code shown by 'edit browse' is the same code as run by 'browse'.

e.g. is there some kind of diff-then-compile when you run it?

That's a good question. The CI script (`test_apps`) does that for the apps, though not yet for `browse`.

Oh, I misunderstood your question. The CI script performs compile-then-diff, and flags an error if there's a mismatch.

What you're asking for is more like my `bootstrap` script (<https://github.com/akkartik/mu/blob/master/bootstrap>), which transparently recompiles if necessary. I should do that for the individual apps at some point, but I don't have that yet.

Nice practical example :slightly_smiling_face:
