Poetic decimals not working in standalone Linux interpreter

Author: flesserCreated Aug 11, 2025Updated Aug 11, 2025

This example code from https://codewithrockstar.com/docs/03-variables.html#poetic-literals does not work as expected in the Linux standalone interpreter:

rockstar
My heart was like ice... a life unfulfilled, wakin' everybody up, taking booze and pills.
Say it.

e is like my… darkest nightmarish longings, my cravings, a symphony of suff'ring that lasts life-long.
Say it.

Using ./rockstar from rockstar-v2.0.31-linux-x64.tar.gz the output is:

31415926535
2718281828459

Expected output as per the docs and https://codewithrockstar.com/online should be

3.1415926535
2.718281828459

Neither form of ellipsis (... nor ) seems to be interpreted as decimal point by the offline interpreter.
