    "Through the MetaCall Kernel, you can save code in form of a file over the disk using the `$newfile` magic. Through the `$loadfile <tag> <filename>` functionality, you can load these external files in form of functions over the MetaCall's meta-object protocol.\n",
    "\n",
    "Once loaded, you can import these functions in a different language, thus implementing cross-language function calls. To check whether a function has been loaded, you can use `$inspect` "
