Araq, While the resource you've pointed us to is absolutely invaluable for the serious and experienced Nim programmer - and, so, thank you very much for it ...
... it is not merely the case that I am neither of these things, but: `-Nim requires me to write code,` `-that convinces the Nim compiler to write code,` `-that convinces a C or C++ compiler to apply SIMD instructions in appropriate places.` For the newbie, that's the sort of thing that will either "just work" or "just not work". Happily, there seems to be good news on that front in this case! :-) (editoral note: RST auto-styling is just not my favorite.)
