guess their project folder, and invoke the Agda compiler there. It boils
down to something like this:
```Ruby Happy (dependently typed) programming and blogging!
# For each Agda file, find the most specific project / subproject to which
# it belongs.
files_for_paths = {}
Dir.glob("**/*.agda", base: root_path) do |agda_file|
best_path = max_path.call(agda_file)
files_for_path = files_for_paths.fetch(best_path) do
files_for_paths[best_path] = []
end
# Strip the project prefix from the Agda file's path, since
# Agda compiler will be invoked in the project's folder.
files_for_path << agda_file[best_path.length + File::SEPARATOR.length..-1]
end
original_wd = Dir.getwd
files_for_paths.each do |path, files|
# There might be a cleaner way of doing this, but it's convenient.
Dir.chdir(original_wd)
Dir.chdir(File.join(root_path, path))
# Wherever the target directory is, create a folder that corresponds to
# the project being built, to avoid "cross-contaminating" the output
# folder with distinct modules with the same name.

In short, it traverses all the folders in my `code` directory -- which is where
I keep my code -- looking for Agda source files. Once it finds them,
