I have some difficulties with recursion, and especially with the
development of the line mode construct. Below, I have reasoned in terms
of strings (the final result), comparing two potential recursive
approaches. The mark ‘𐄂’ indicates a potential issue in my process. The
arrows indicates some kind of recursion.
