2. editor mode: a terminal-based code editor is opened and the resulting code is executed once you save and exit
   • cry... edit code in Vim... code runs.
3. file mode: code within an existing .cr file is copied to a tmp file for editing and run once editor is closed.
   • cry scripts/stuff.cr
4. back: open and previous run in editor mode.
   • cry -b 1 ... copies previous run to tmp file for editing and runs when editor is closed.
5. loop: continuously edit and execute code.
   • cry -r -b 1 ... copies previous run to tmp file for editing and runs when editor is closed in a loop.
6. log: show a log of all previous runs.
