Be a pointer

Empty your memory,
with a free()…
like a pointer!
If you cast a pointer to an integer,
it becomes the integer,
if you cast a pointer to a struct,
it becomes the struct…
The pointer can overflow…,
or it can crash…
Be a pointer my friend…

(Sorry, i couldn’t resist :-) Hat tip Aleix.)

    a little variation that i just invented :)

    Get an new empty buffer
    just with a key stroke
    like in emacs!
    if you change its mode
    it becomes a browser
    if you change its mode
    it becomes a mail agent
    Emacs can edit files
    or whatever you imagine
    Be Emacs my friend…
