I just installed Lagrange on a new machine. How can I post as myself on Station from there? I see a way to import a User Certificate but no way to export? Is this even the right approach to pursue?

The Mu shell's error-handling is much improved. Back now to my plan from 3 years ago: a prototyping environment that encourages people to write tests so the prototype can eventually be thrown away and rewritten.

Don't called them signed ints and unsigned ints. Call them ints and addresses. Most of us don't care about the increased range of integers yielded by that final extra bit. But addresses sometimes need to set it. And we never want to think of addresses as negative.
