-# Building Cagire
-
-## Quick Start
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/Bubobubobubobubo/cagire
-cd cagire
-cargo build --release
-```
-
-The `doux` audio engine is fetched automatically from git. No local path setup needed.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-**Rust** (stable toolchain): https://rustup.rs
-
-## System Dependencies
-
-### macOS
-
-```bash
-brew install cmake
-```
-
-cmake is required by `rusty_link` (Ableton Link C++ bindings). Xcode Command Line Tools provide the C++ compiler. CoreAudio and CoreMIDI are built-in. The desktop build needs no additional dependencies on macOS (Cocoa/Metal are provided by the system).
-
-### Linux (Debian/Ubuntu)
-
-```bash
-sudo apt install cmake g++ pkg-config libasound2-dev libjack-jackd2-dev
-```
-
-For the desktop build (egui/eframe), also install:
-
-```bash
-sudo apt install libgl-dev libxkbcommon-dev libx11-dev libxcursor-dev libxrandr-dev libxi-dev libwayland-dev
-```
-
-### Linux (Arch)
-
-```bash
-sudo pacman -S cmake gcc pkgconf alsa-lib jack2
-```
-
-For the desktop build:
-
-```bash
-sudo pacman -S libxkbcommon libx11 libxcursor libxrandr libxi wayland mesa
-```
-
-### Linux (Fedora)
-
-```bash
-sudo dnf install cmake gcc-c++ pkgconf-pkg-config alsa-lib-devel jack-audio-connection-kit-devel
-```
-
-For the desktop build:
-
-```bash
-sudo dnf install libxkbcommon-devel libX11-devel libXcursor-devel libXrandr-devel libXi-devel wayland-devel mesa-libGL-devel
-```
-
-### Windows
-
-Install Visual Studio Build Tools (MSVC) and CMake. Everything else is provided by the Windows SDK.
-
-## Build
-
-Terminal (default):
-
-```bash
-cargo build --release
-```
-
-Desktop (egui window):
-
-```bash
-cargo build --release --features desktop --bin cagire-desktop
-```
-
-Plugins (CLAP/VST3):
-
-```bash
-cargo xtask bundle cagire-plugins --release
-```
-
-The xtask alias is defined in `.cargo/config.toml` (committed). Plugin bundles are output to `target/bundled/`.
-
-## Run
-
-Terminal (default):
-
-```bash
-cargo run --release -- [OPTIONS]
-```
-
-Desktop (egui window):
-
-```bash
-cargo run --release --features desktop --bin cagire-desktop
-```
-
-| Flag | Description |
-|------|-------------|
-| `-s, --samples <path>` | Sample directory (repeatable) |
-| `-o, --output <device>` | Output audio device |
-| `-i, --input <device>` | Input audio device |
-| `-c, --channels <n>` | Output channel count |
-| `-b, --buffer <size>` | Audio buffer size |
-
-## Cross-Compilation
-
-[cross](https://github.com/cross-rs/cross) uses Docker to build for other platforms without installing their toolchains locally. It works on any OS that runs Docker.
-
-### Targets
-
-| Target | Method | Binaries |
-|--------|--------|----------|
-| aarch64-apple-darwin | Native (macOS ARM only) | `cagire`, `cagire-desktop` |
-| x86_64-apple-darwin | Native (macOS only) | `cagire`, `cagire-desktop` |
-| x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu | `cross build` | `cagire`, `cagire-desktop` |
-| aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu (RPi 64-bit) | `cross build` | `cagire`, `cagire-desktop` |
-| x86_64-pc-windows-gnu | `cross build` | `cagire`, `cagire-desktop` |
-
-macOS targets can only be built on macOS — Apple does not support cross-compilation to macOS from other platforms. Linux and Windows targets can be cross-compiled from any OS. The aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu target covers Raspberry Pi (64-bit OS).
-
-### Windows ABI
-
-CI produces `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc` binaries (native Windows build, better compatibility). Local cross-compilation from non-Windows hosts produces `x86_64-pc-windows-gnu` binaries (MinGW via Docker). Both work; MSVC is preferred for releases.
-
-### Prerequisites
-
-1. **Docker**: https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/
-2. **cross**: `cargo install cross --git https://github.com/cross-rs/cross`
-3. On macOS, add the Intel target: `rustup target add x86_64-apple-darwin`
-
-Docker must be running before invoking `cross` or `scripts/build-all.sh`.
-
-### Building Individual Targets
-
-```bash
-# Linux x86_64
-cross build --release --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
-cross build --release --features desktop --bin cagire-desktop --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
-
-# Linux aarch64
-cross build --release --target aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
-cross build --release --features desktop --bin cagire-desktop --target aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
-
-# Windows x86_64
-cross build --release --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
-cross build --release --features desktop --bin cagire-desktop --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
-```
-
-### Building All Targets (macOS only)
-
-```bash
-# Interactive (prompts for platform/target selection):
-scripts/build-all.sh
-
-# Non-interactive:
-scripts/build-all.sh --platforms macos-arm64,linux-x86_64 --targets cli,desktop --yes
-scripts/build-all.sh --all --yes
-```
-
-Builds selected targets, producing binaries in `releases/`.
-
-Platform aliases: `macos-arm64`, `macos-x86_64`, `linux-x86_64`, `linux-aarch64`, `windows-x86_64`.
-Target aliases: `cli`, `desktop`, `plugins`.
-
-### Linux AppImage Packaging
-
-Linux releases ship as AppImages — self-contained executables that bundle all shared library dependencies (ALSA, JACK, X11, OpenGL). No runtime dependencies required.
-
-After building a Linux target, produce an AppImage with:
-
-```bash
-scripts/make-appimage.sh target/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/cagire x86_64 releases
-```
-
-`scripts/build-all.sh` does this automatically for every Linux target selected. The CI pipeline produces AppImages for the x86_64 Linux build. Cross-arch AppImage building (e.g. aarch64 on x86_64) is not supported — run on a matching host or in CI.
-
-### Notes
-
-- Custom Dockerfiles in `cross/` install the native libraries Cagire depends on (ALSA, JACK, X11, cmake, libclang, etc.). `Cross.toml` maps each target to its Dockerfile.
-- The first build per target downloads Docker base images and installs packages. Subsequent builds use cached layers.
-- Cross-architecture Docker builds (e.g. aarch64 on x86_64 or vice versa) run under QEMU emulation and are significantly slower.

-- `rec` / `overdub` (`dub`) — record/overdub master audio to a named sample.
-- `orec` / `odub` — record/overdub a single orbit.
-
-**Harmony and voicing:**
-- `key!` — set tonal center.
-- `triad` / `seventh` — diatonic chord from scale degree.
-- `inv` / `dinv` — chord inversion / down inversion.
-- `drop2` / `drop3` — drop voicings.

-
-**New chord types:**
-- `pwr`, `augmaj7`, `7sus4`, `9sus4`, `maj69`, `min69`, `maj11`, `maj13`, `min13`, `dom7s11`.
-
-**Effect parameters:**
-- Ducking compressor: `comp`, `compattack`/`cattack`, `comprelease`/`crelease`, `comporbit`/`corbit`.
-- Smear effect: `smear`, `smearfreq`, `smearfb`.
-- Reverb: `verbtype`, `verbchorus`, `verbchorusfreq`, `verbprelow`, `verbprehigh`, `verblowcut`, `verbhighcut`, `verblowgain`.
-
-**Behavior changes:**
-- All parameter words now accept varargs (100+ words updated to consume the full stack).
-- `every` reworked to accept quotations.
-- Removed `chain` word (replaced by pattern-level Follow Up setting).
-
-### Engine
-- SF2 soundfont support: auto-scans sample directories for `.sf2` files.
-- Follow-up actions: patterns have configurable follow-up (Loop, Stop, Chain). Replaces the `chain` word with a declarative UI setting (`e` key).
-- Delta-time MIDI scheduling for tighter timing.
-- Audio stream errors surfaced as flash messages.
-- Prelude script evaluated on application startup (not only on play).
-- Global periodic script: a hidden script page runs alongside all patterns at its own speed/length.
-- RestartAll command: reset all active patterns to step 0 and clear state.
-- Tempo and current beat exposed in sequencer snapshot.
-- Spectrum analyzer rescaling.
-
-### UI / UX
-- **Engine page redesign**: responsive narrow/wide layout, Link/MIDI/device settings moved here from Options.
-- **Patterns view redesign**: banks column with pattern counts, expandable detail rows, bottom preview strip with mini step grid.
-- **Mouse support**: click navigation on header/grid/panels/modals, text selection in code editor (click+drag), double-click on scope/spectrum/lissajous to cycle display modes.
-- Smooth playback progress bar interpolated between steps.
-- Dynamic step grid sizing adapts to terminal height.
-- Lissajous XY scope with Braille rendering and thermal trail mode.
-- Gain boost (1x–16x) and normalize toggle for scope/lissajous/spectrum.
-- Pattern description field: editable via `d`, shown in pattern list and properties.
-- Bank/pattern import and export via clipboard (base64 serialization for sharing).
-- Mute/solo on main page now apply immediately (no staging).
-- Step name automatically cleared when deleting a step.
-- F1–F6 page navigation across the 3×2 page grid.
-- Collapsible help sections with code block copy.
-- Onboarding system for first-time users.
-- Show/hide preview pane toggle and zoom factor setting.
-- Reduced UI lag: sequencer snapshot moved after render call.
-- 10 bundled demo projects loaded on fresh startup (togglable in Options).
-- Options page: each option shows a description line below when focused.
-- Dictionary page: word list uses full page height (removed description box).
-
-### Themes
-- 5 new themes: Iceberg, Everforest, Fauve, Tropicalia, Jaipur.
-- Palette-based generation: all 18 themes derived from a 14-field Palette via Oklab color space (definitions reduced from ~300 to ~20 lines each).
-
-### Desktop (egui)
-- Fixed Alt/Option key on macOS (dead-key composition now works).
-- Fixed multi-character text paste.
-- Extended function key support (F13–F20).
-- No console window on Windows desktop build.
-
-### Packaging
-- macOS: `.dmg` disk image with `.app` bundle (Intel + Apple Silicon fat binaries via `lipo`).
-- Windows: `.msi` installer via WiX.
-- Linux: improved AppImage build scripts and Docker cross-compilation.
+### UI / UX (breaking cosmetic changes)
+- **Options page**: Each option now shows a short description line below when focused, replacing the static header box.
+- **Dictionary page**: Removed the Forth description box at the top. The word list now uses the full page height.
 
 ### CLAP Plugin (experimental)
 - Early CLAP plugin support via nih-plug, baseview, and egui. Feature-gated builds separate CLI from plugin targets.
 
+### Forth Language
+- Removed `chain` word (replaced by pattern-level Follow Up setting).
+- `case/of/endof/endcase` control flow for pattern-matching dispatch.
+- `bjork` / `pbjork` — euclidean rhythm gates using quotations: execute a block only on Bjorklund-distributed hits.
+- `arp` — arpeggio list type that spreads notes across time positions instead of stacking them simultaneously.
+- `,varname` assignment syntax (SetKeep): assign to a variable without consuming the value from the stack.
+- `every` reworked to accept quotations for cleaner conditional step logic.
+- All parameter words now accept varargs — over 100 words updated to consume the full stack.
+- Reverb parameter words added.
+
+### Engine
+- Follow-up actions: patterns now have a configurable follow-up behavior (Loop, Stop, or Chain to another pattern). Replaces the Forth `chain` word with a declarative setting in the Pattern Properties modal (`e` key). Chain targets specify bank and pattern via UI fields.
+- Delta-time MIDI scheduling for tighter, sample-accurate timing.
+- Tempo and current beat exposed in sequencer snapshot.
+- Spectrum analyzer rescaling.
+
+### UI / UX
+- Patterns view redesign: new layout with banks column (showing pattern counts), expandable detail rows for the focused pattern (quantization, sync mode, progress bar), and a bottom preview strip with mini step grid and pattern properties.
+- Smooth playback progress: playing patterns display a real-time progress bar interpolated between steps.
+- Dynamic step grid sizing: `steps_per_page` adapts to terminal height instead of using a fixed constant.
+- Mouse support: click navigation on the pattern grid, panels, and modals.
+- F1–F6 page navigation across the 3×2 page grid.
+- Collapsible help sections with code block copy.
+- Onboarding system for first-time users.
+- New reusable widgets: CategoryList, HintBar, PropsForm, ScrollIndicators, SearchBar, SectionHeader.
+- Show/hide preview pane toggle and zoom factor setting.
+
 ### Documentation
 - Complete reorganization into `docs/` subdirectories.
 - 10 getting-started guides, 5 interactive tutorials.
-- New tutorials: Recording, Soundfonts, Sharing (import/export).
-- New topics: control flow, generators, harmony, randomness, variables, timing, bracket syntax.
-- Crate-level READMEs for forth, markdown, project, ratatui.
+- New topics: control flow, generators, harmony, randomness, variables, timing.
 
-### Fixed
-- CycleList + ArpList index collision: arp uses timing index, cycle uses polyphony slot.
-- Scope widget not drawing completely in some terminal sizes.
+### Theme System
+- Palette-based generation: all 18 themes now derived from a 14-field Palette via Oklab color space.
+- Theme definitions reduced from ~300 lines each to ~20 lines.
 
 ### Codebase
-- `src/app.rs` split into 10 focused modules.
+- `src/app.rs` split into 10 focused modules (dispatch, clipboard, editing, navigation, persistence, scripting, sequencer, staging, undo).
 - `src/input.rs` split into 8 page-specific handlers.
 - Undo/redo system with scope-based tracking.
 - Feature-gated CLI vs plugin builds.
-- New reusable widgets: CategoryList, HintBar, PropsForm, ScrollIndicators, SearchBar, SectionHeader.

-</p>
-
-Cagire is a terminal based step sequencer and live coding platform. Each step in a sequence is represented by a **Forth** script. It ships with a self-contained audio engine. No external software is needed, Cagire is a fully autonomous musical instrument that provides everything you need to perform.
-
-### Examples
-
-A filtered sawtooth with reverb:
-
-```forth
-saw sound
-200 199 freq
-400 lpf
-.8 lpq .3 verb
-.
-```
-
-A generative pattern using randomness, scales, and effects:
-
-```forth
-sine sound 2 fm 0.5 fmh
-0 7 rand minor 50 + note
-.1 .8 rrand cutoff
-1 4 irand 10 * delay .5 delayfb
-.
-```
-
-### Features
-
-- **Cagire's Forth**: a stack-based language made for live coding
-  - Forth has almost no syntax, only words, numbers and spaces. Very easy to learn for beginners, quite deep for experienced programmers.
-  - Nondeterminism and generative: randomness, probabilities, patterns thought as first-class features.
-  - Quotations: code blocks `( ... )` that compose with probability, cycling, euclidean, and conditional words.
-  - User-defined words: extend (or redefine) the language on the fly with `:name ... ;` definitions.
-  - Interactive documentation: built-in tutorials with runnable examples.
-- **Audio engine** (powered by [Doux](https://doux.livecoding.fr)):
-  - Synthesis: classic waveforms (saw, pulse, tri, sine), additive, FM (2-op, 3 algorithms), additive synthesis, wavetables, 7-voice spread, Mutable Instruments Plaits models: modal, granular, waveshaping, chord, swarm, etc.
-  - Drum models: seven drum models with timbral morphing.
-  - Sampling: disk-loaded samples with slicing, looping, pitch tracking, wavetable mode, and live recording from engine output or line input.
-  - Filters: biquad LP/HP/BP and ladder filters, each with independent envelope. Filters can be modulated, stacked, etc.
-  - Effects: phaser, flanger, chorus, smear, distortion, wavefolder, wavewrapper, bitcrusher, sample-rate reduction, 3-band EQ, tilt EQ, Haas stereo.
-  - Bus effects: delay (standard, ping-pong, tape, multitap), two reverb engines (Dattorro plate, Vital Space), comb filter, feedback delay with LFO, sidechain compressor.
-  - Modulation: vibrato, AM, ring mod, pitch envelope, FM envelope, glide — all with selectable LFO shapes (sine, tri, saw, square, sample & hold).
-- **Sequencing**: probabilities, patterns, euclidean structures, sub-step timing, pattern chaining and a lot more.
-- **MIDI**: receive or send MIDI messages across up to 4 inputs and 4 outputs.
-- **Ableton Link**: tempo and phase sync with any Link-enabled software or hardware.
-- **Cross-platform**: terminal and desktop interfaces on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
-- **Plugins**: run Cagire as a CLAP or VST3 plugin inside your DAW (separate version).

-Stack-based Forth VM for the Cagire sequencer. Tokenizes, compiles, and executes step scripts to produce audio and MIDI commands.
-
-## Modules
-
-| Module | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `vm` | Interpreter loop, `Forth::evaluate()` entry point |
-| `compiler` | Tokenization (with source spans) and single-pass compilation to ops |
-| `ops` | `Op` enum (~90 variants) |
-| `types` | `Value`, `StepContext`, shared state types |
-| `words/` | Built-in word definitions: `core`, `sound`, `music`, `midi`, `effects`, `sequencing`, `compile` |
-| `theory/` | Music theory lookups: `scales` (~200 patterns), `chords` (interval arrays) |
-
-## Key Types
-
-- **`Forth`** — VM instance, holds stacks and compilation state
-- **`Value`** — Stack value (int, float, string, list, quotation, ...)
-- **`StepContext`** — Per-step evaluation context (step index, tempo, variables, ...)
-- **`Op`** — Compiled operation; nondeterministic variants carry `Option<SourceSpan>` for tracing
-- **`ExecutionTrace`** — Records executed/selected spans and resolved values during evaluation

-TUI widget library and theme system for Cagire.
-
-## Widgets
-
-`category_list`, `confirm`, `editor`, `file_browser`, `hint_bar`, `lissajous`, `list_select`, `modal`, `nav_minimap`, `props_form`, `sample_browser`, `scope`, `scroll_indicators`, `search_bar`, `section_header`, `sparkles`, `spectrum`, `text_input`, `vu_meter`, `waveform`
-
-## Theme System
-
-The `theme/` module provides a palette-based theming system using Oklab color space.
-
-| Module | Description |
-|--------|-------------|
-| `mod` | `THEMES` array, `CURRENT_THEME` thread-local, `get()`/`set()` |
-| `palette` | `Palette` (14 fields), color manipulation helpers (`shift`, `mix`, `tint_bg`, ...) |
-| `build` | Derives ~190 `ThemeColors` fields from a `Palette` |
-| `transform` | HSV-based hue rotation for generated palettes |
-
-25 built-in themes.
-
-## Key Types
-
-- **`Palette`** — 14-field color definition, input to theme generation
-- **`ThemeColors`** — ~190 derived semantic colors used throughout the UI

 Forth is a _stack-based_ programming language created by Charles H. Moore in the early 1970s. It was designed with simplicity, directness, and interactive exploration in mind. Forth has been used for scientific work and embedded systems: it controlled telescopes and even ran on hardware aboard space missions. It evolved into many implementations targeting various architectures, but none of them really caught on. Nonetheless, the ideas behind Forth continue to attract people from very different, often unrelated fields. Today, Forth languages are used by hackers and artists for their unconventional nature. Forth is simple, direct, and beautiful to implement. Forth is an elegant, minimal language, easy to understand, extend, and tailor to a specific task. The Forth we use in Cagire is specialized in making live music. It is used as a DSL: a _Domain Specific Language_. 
 
-**TLDR:** Forth is a really nice language to play music with.
-
 ## Why Forth?
 
 Most programming languages rely on a complex syntax of `variables`, `expressions` and `statements` like `x = 3 + 4` or `do_something(()=>bob(4))`. Forth works differently. It has almost no syntax at all. Instead, you push values onto a `stack` and apply `words` that transform them:
 
 ```forth
-3 4 + print
+3 4 +
 ```
 
 The program above leaves the number `7` on the stack. There are no variables, no parentheses, no syntax to remember. You just end up with words and numbers separated by spaces. For live coding music, this directness is quite exciting. All you do is think in terms of transformations and add things to the stack: take a note, shift it up, add reverb, play it.
@@ -22,7 +20,6 @@ The stack is where values live. When you type a number, it goes on the stack. Wh
 3 ;; stack: 3
 4 ;; stack: 3 4

 The stack is `last-in, first-out`. The most recent value is always on top. This means that it's often better to read Forth programs from right to left, bottom to top.

 Forth has a large vocabulary, so Cagire includes a `Dictionary` directly in the application. You can also create your own words. They will work just like existing words. The only difference is that these words will not be included in the dictionary. There are good reasons to create new words on-the-fly:
@@ -57,26 +54,17 @@ Four basic types of values can live on the stack:
 - **Integers**: `42`, `-7`, `0`
 - **Floats**: `0.5`, `3.14`, `-1.0`
 - **Strings**: `"kick"`, `"hello"`
-- **Quotations**: `( dup + )` (code as data)
+- **Quotations**: `{ dup + }` (code as data)
 
 Floats can omit the leading zero: `.25` is the same as `0.25`, and `-.5` is `-0.5`.
 
-Parentheses are used to "quote" a section of a program. The code inside does not run immediately — it is pushed onto the stack as a value. A quotation only runs when a consuming word decides to execute it. This is how conditionals and loops work:
+Parentheses are ignored by the parser. You can use them freely for visual grouping without affecting execution:
 
 ```forth
-( 60 note 0.3 verb ) 1 ?
+(c4 note) (0.5 gain) "sine" s .
 ```
 
-Here `?` pops the quotation and the condition. The code inside runs only when the condition is truthy. Words like `?`, `!?`, `times`, `cycle`, `choose`, `ifelse`, `every`, `chance`, and `apply` all consume quotations this way.
-
-Because parentheses defer execution, wrapping code in `( ... )` without a consuming word means it never runs. Quotations are transparent to sound and parameter words — they stay on the stack untouched. This is a useful trick for temporarily disabling part of a step:
-
-```forth
-( 0.5 gain )         ;; this quotation is ignored
-"kick" sound
-0.3 decay
-.
-```
+Quotations are special. They let you pass code around as a value. This is how conditionals and loops work. Don't worry about them for now — you'll learn how to use them later.
 
 Any word that is not recognized as a built-in or a user definition becomes a string on the stack. This means `kick s` and `"kick" s` are equivalent. You only need quotes when the string contains spaces or when it conflicts with an existing word name.

-# Brackets
-
-Cagire uses three bracket forms. Each one behaves differently.
-
-## ( ... ) — Quotations
-
-Parentheses create quotations: deferred code. The contents are not executed immediately — they are pushed onto the stack as a single value.
-
-```forth
-( dup + )
-```
-
-This pushes a block of code. You can store it in a variable, pass it to other words, or execute it later. Quotations are what make Cagire's control flow work.
-
-### Words that consume quotations
-
-Many built-in words expect a quotation on the stack:
-
-| Word | Effect |
-|------|--------|
-| `?` | Execute if condition is truthy |
-| `!?` | Execute if condition is falsy |
-| `ifelse` | Choose between two quotations |
-| `select` | Pick the nth quotation from a list |
-| `apply` | Execute unconditionally |
-| `times` | Loop n times |
-| `cycle` / `pcycle` | Rotate through quotations |
-| `choose` | Pick one at random |
-| `every` | Execute on every nth iteration |
-| `chance` / `prob` | Execute with probability |
-| `bjork` / `pbjork` | Euclidean rhythm gate |
-
-When a word like `cycle` or `choose` selects a quotation, it executes it. When it selects a plain value, it pushes it.
-
-### Nesting
-
-Quotations nest freely:
-
-```forth
-( ( c4 note ) ( e4 note ) coin ifelse ) 4 every
-```
-
-The outer quotation runs every 4th iteration. Inside, a coin flip picks the note.
-
-### The mute trick
-
-Wrapping code in a quotation without consuming it is a quick way to disable it:
-
-```forth
-( kick s . )
-```
-
-Nothing will execute this quotation — it just sits on the stack and gets discarded. Useful for temporarily silencing a line while editing.
-
-## [ ... ] — Square Brackets
-
-Square brackets execute their contents immediately, then push a count of how many values were produced. The values themselves stay on the stack.
-
-```forth
-[ 60 64 67 ]
-```
-
-After this runs, the stack holds `60 64 67 3` — three values plus the count `3`. This is useful with words that need to know how many items precede them:
-
-```forth
-[ 60 64 67 ] cycle note sine s .
-```
-
-The `cycle` word reads the count to know how many values to rotate through. Without brackets you would write `60 64 67 3 cycle` — the brackets save you from counting manually.
-
-Square brackets work with any word that takes a count:
-
-```forth
-[ c4 e4 g4 ] choose note saw s .    ;; random note from the list
-[ 60 64 67 ] note sine s .           ;; 3-note chord (note consumes all)
-```
-
-### Nesting
-
-Square brackets can nest. Each pair produces its own count:
-
-```forth
-[ [ 60 64 67 ] cycle [ 0.3 0.5 0.8 ] cycle ] choose
-```
-
-### Expressions inside brackets
-
-The contents are compiled and executed normally, so you can use any Forth code:
-
-```forth
-[ c4 c4 3 + c4 7 + ] note sine s .    ;; root, minor third, fifth
-```
-
-## { ... } — Curly Braces
-
-Curly braces are ignored by the compiler. They do nothing. Use them as a visual aid to group related code:
-
-```forth
-{ kick s } { 0.5 gain } { 0.3 verb } .
-```
-
-This compiles to exactly the same thing as:
-
-```forth
-kick s 0.5 gain 0.3 verb .
-```
-
-They can help readability in dense one-liners but have no semantic meaning.

 # Control Flow
 
-Control flow in Cagire's Forth comes in two families. The first is compiled syntax — `if/then` and `case` — which the compiler handles directly as branch instructions. The second is quotation words — `?`, `!?`, `ifelse`, `select`, `apply` — which pop `( ... )` quotations from the stack and decide whether to run them. Probability and periodic execution (`chance`, `every`, `bjork`) are covered in the Randomness tutorial.
+Sometimes a step should behave differently depending on context — a coin flip, a fill, which iteration of the pattern is playing. Control flow words let you branch, choose, and repeat inside a step's script. Control structures are essential for programming and allow you to create complex and dynamic patterns.
 
-## Branching with if / else / then
+## if / else / then
 
-Push a condition, then `if`. Everything between `if` and `then` runs only when the condition is truthy:
+The simplest branch. Push a condition, then `if`:
 
 ```forth
-;; degrade sound if true
-coin if
-  7 crush
-then
-sine sound
-c4 note
-1 decay
-.
+coin if 0.8 gain then
+saw s c4 note .
 ```
 
-The crush is applied on half the hits. The sound always plays. Add `else` for a two-way split:
+The gain is applied if the coin flip is true. The sound will always plays. Add `else` for a two-way split:
 
 ```forth
 coin if

+  c4 note
 else
   c3 note
 then
-saw sound
-0.3 verb
-0.5 decay
-0.6 gain
-.
+saw s 0.6 gain .
 ```
 
-These are compiled directly into branch instructions — they will not appear in the dictionary. This is a "low level" way to use conditionals in Cagire.
+These are compiled directly into branch instructions. For that reason, these words will not appear in the dictionary.
 
-## Matching with case
+## ? and !?
+
+When you already have a quotation, `?` executes it if the condition is truthy:
+
+```forth
+{ 0.4 verb } coin ?
+saw s c4 note 0.5 gain .    ;; reverb on half the hits
+```
+
+`!?` is the opposite — executes when falsy:
+
+```forth
+{ 0.2 gain } coin !?
+saw s c4 note .              ;; quiet on half the hits
+```
+
+These pair well with `chance`, `prob`, and the other probability words:
+
+```forth
+{ 0.5 verb } 0.3 chance ?      ;; occasional reverb wash
+{ 12 + } fill ?                 ;; octave up during fills
+```
+
+## ifelse
+
+Two quotations, one condition. The true branch comes first:
+
+```forth
+{ c3 note } { c4 note } coin ifelse
+saw s 0.6 gain .                ;; bass or lead, coin flip
+```
+
+Reads naturally: "c3 or c4, depending on the coin."
+
+```forth
+{ 0.8 gain } { 0.3 gain } fill ifelse
+tri s c4 note 0.2 decay .      ;; loud during fills, quiet otherwise
+```
+
+## pick
+
+Choose the nth option from a list of quotations:
+
+```forth
+{ c4 } { e4 } { g4 } { b4 } iter 4 mod pick
+note sine s 0.5 decay .
+```
+
+Four notes cycling through a major seventh chord, one per pattern iteration. The index is 0-based.
+
+## apply
+
+When you have a quotation and want to execute it unconditionally, use `apply`:
+
+```forth
+{ dup + } apply    ;; doubles the top value
+```
+
+This is simpler than `?` when there is no condition to check. It pops the quotation and runs it.
+
+## case / of / endof / endcase
 
 For matching a value against several options. Cleaner than a chain of `if`s when you have more than two branches:
 
 ```forth
-1 8 rand 4 mod case
+iter 4 mod case
   0 of c3 note endof
   1 of e3 note endof
   2 of g3 note endof
   3 of a3 note endof
 endcase
-tri s
-2 fm 0.99 fmh
-0.6 gain 0.2 chorus
-1 decay
-800 lpf
-.
+saw s 0.6 gain 800 lpf .
 ```
 
-A different root note each time the pattern loops. The last line before `endcase` is the default — it runs when no `of` matched:
+A different root note each time the pattern loops.
+
+The last line before `endcase` is the default — it runs when no `of` matched:

 endcase
-saw s
-.5 decay
-c4 note
-.
+saw s c4 note .
 ```
 
-Like `if/then`, `case` is compiled syntax and does not appear in the dictionary.
+## times
 
-## Quotation Words
-
-The remaining control flow words operate on quotations — `( ... )` blocks sitting on the stack. Each word pops one or more quotations and decides whether or how to execute them.
-
-### ? and !?
-
-`?` executes a quotation if the condition is truthy:
+Repeat a quotation n times. The variable `@i` is automatically set to the current iteration index (starting from 0):
 
 ```forth
-( 0.4 verb 6 crush ) coin ?
-tri sound 2 fm 0.5 fmh
-c3 note 0.5 gain 2 decay
-.
+3 { c4 @i 4 * + note } times
+sine s 0.4 gain 0.5 verb .      ;; c4, e4, g#4 — a chord
 ```
 
-Reverb on half the hits. `!?` is the opposite — executes when falsy:
+Subdivide with `at`:
 
 ```forth
-( 0.5 delay 0.9 delayfeedback ) coin !?
-saw sound
-c4 note
-500 lpf
-0.5 decay
-0.5 gain
-.
+4 { @i 4 / at sine s c4 note 0.3 gain . } times
 ```
 
-Quiet on half the hits. These pair well with `chance` and `fill` from the Randomness tutorial.
+Four evenly spaced notes within the step.
 
-### ifelse
-
-Two quotations, one condition. The true branch comes first:
+Vary intensity per iteration:
 
 ```forth
-( c3 note ) ( c5 note ) coin ifelse
-saw sound 0.3 verb
-0.5 decay 0.6 gain
-.
+8 {
+  @i 8 / at
+  @i 4 mod 0 = if 0.7 else 0.2 then gain
+  tri s c5 note 0.1 decay .
+} times
 ```
 
-Reads naturally: "c3 or c5, depending on the coin."
-
-```forth
-( 0.8 gain ) ( 0.3 gain ) fill ifelse
-tri s c4 note 0.2 decay .
-```
-
-Loud during fills, quiet otherwise.
-
-### select
-
-Choose the nth quotation from a list. The index is 0-based:
-
-```forth
-( c4 ) ( e4 ) ( g4 ) ( b4 ) 0 3 rand select
-note sine s 0.5 decay .
-```
-
-Four notes of a major seventh chord picked randomly. Note that this is unnecessarily complex :)
-
-### apply
-
-When you have a quotation and want to execute it unconditionally:
-
-```forth
-( dup + ) apply
-```
-
-Pops the quotation and runs it. Simpler than `?` when there is no condition to check.

-# Cycling & Selection
-
-These words all share a pattern: push values onto the stack, then select one. If the selected item is a quotation, it gets executed. If it is a plain value, it gets pushed. All of them support `[ ]` brackets for auto-counting.
-
-## cycle / pcycle
-
-Sequential rotation through values.
-
-`cycle` advances based on `runs` — how many times this particular step has played:
-
-```forth
-60 64 67 3 cycle note sine s .    ;; 60, 64, 67, 60, 64, 67, ...
-```
-
-`pcycle` advances based on `iter` — the pattern iteration count:
-
-```forth
-kick snare 2 pcycle s .    ;; kick on even iterations, snare on odd
-```
-
-The distinction matters when patterns have different lengths or when multiple steps share the same script. `cycle` gives each step its own independent counter. `pcycle` ties all steps to the same global pattern position.
-
-## bounce / pbounce
-
-Ping-pong instead of wrapping. With 4 values the sequence is 0, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, ...
-
-```forth
-60 64 67 72 4 bounce note sine s .    ;; ping-pong by step runs
-60 64 67 72 4 pbounce note sine s .   ;; ping-pong by pattern iteration
-```
-
-Same `runs` vs `iter` split as `cycle` / `pcycle`.
-
-## choose
-
-Uniform random selection:
-
-```forth
-kick snare hat 3 choose s .    ;; random drum hit each time
-```
-
-Unlike the cycling words, `choose` is nondeterministic — every evaluation picks independently.
-
-## wchoose
-
-Weighted random. Push value/weight pairs, then the count:
-
-```forth
-kick 0.5  snare 0.3  hat 0.2  3 wchoose s .
-```
-
-Kick plays 50% of the time, snare 30%, hat 20%. Weights are normalized automatically — they don't need to sum to 1.
-
-## index
-
-Direct lookup by an explicit index. The index wraps with modulo, so it never goes out of bounds. Negative indices count from the end:
-
-```forth
-[ c4 e4 g4 ] step index note sine s .    ;; step number picks the note
-[ c4 e4 g4 ] iter index note sine s .    ;; pattern iteration picks the note
-```
-
-This is useful when you want full control over which value is selected, driven by any expression you like.
-
-## Using with brackets
-
-All these words take a count argument `n`. Square brackets compute that count for you:
-
-```forth
-[ 60 64 67 ] cycle note sine s .      ;; no need to write "3"
-[ kick snare hat ] choose s .
-[ c4 e4 g4 b4 ] bounce note sine s .
-```
-
-Without brackets: `60 64 67 3 cycle`. With brackets: `[ 60 64 67 ] cycle`. Same result, less counting.
-
-## Quotations
-
-When any of these words selects a quotation, it executes it instead of pushing it:
-
-```forth
-[ ( c4 note ) ( e4 note ) ( g4 note ) ] cycle
-sine s .
-```
-
-On the first run the quotation `( c4 note )` executes, setting the note to C4. Next run, E4. Then G4. Then back to C4.
-
-This works with all selection words. Mix plain values and quotations freely:
-
-```forth
-[ ( hat s 0.3 gain . ) ( snare s . ) ( kick s . ) ] choose
-```
