i have never programmed in swift but- suggestion for you
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. its just a simple fix
now as the title states i have NEVER not once tried swift however i have had on hand experience WITH ALOT of programming languages, both compiled, interpreted, low and high level languages and i can tell you any form of a constant print statement is not- resource efficient | | so maybe you can have swift read all the basic output into a txt file, an example would be
writeMessage("SNAP SCRAPER")
writeMessage("Version 0.5b")
writeMessage("Last updated 2021:11:05")
converted into a text file with
SNAP SCRAPER
Version 0.5b
Last updated 2021:11:05

other text that does not need a print statement
im sure even from personal experience it is alot easier than constantly writing writeMessage and alot more as said above resource efficiant
Definitely sounds like a workable improvement. The code is not focused on efficiency at present, likely why the MIT licence is such a good use. I was focused on pushing a tool for the community to use. Efficiency improvements like this are definitely something that should be considered before scaling up. Feel free to create a pull request if you want to work on this?
i wish i could work on this honestly, i do not have any swift knowlege, emulators, or specified ideas but maybe i will find someone who could, but yeah i understand the community use best of luck to you in the future however! :D

Hey there I came across this issue and looked over your code and was just wondering, if you use multi-line break in Swift you don't have to call the writeMessage function multiple times to create the same effect. I saw ArkAngeL43's suggestion to make a text file and that's good. But if you wanted to keep it in the file I tried a different way. So I decided to test it out in a playground with the Snap-Scraper logo and change it:
Before:
- func logo(){
writeMessage("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------")
writeMessage("SNAP SCRAPER--------------------------------------------------------------------")
writeMessage("Version 0.5b------------------@@@&@@@@@@@@@@@&&---------------------------------")
writeMessage("Last updated 2021:11:05-----&@@( ,%%%%%%%%%%%--------------------------")
writeMessage("--------------------------@@. .%%(........../%%&-----------------------")
writeMessage("-----------------------@&@. *%#............../%%----------------------")
writeMessage("----------------------@@% OO %#................(%&---------------------")
writeMessage("---------------------@&@. OOOO ##................(%&---------------------")
writeMessage("---------------------@&@ OOOO *%#.............,(%%----------------------")
writeMessage("---------------------@&@ OO %%#(.........(%%------------------------")
writeMessage("---------------------@&@. ,#%%%%%%%%#*.%&-----------------------")
writeMessage("----------------&@@&@@&@, &&&----------------------")
writeMessage("-------------@&@, .,**. ,*,. -----------------")
writeMessage("---------------@&@@&* ,#@@------------------")
writeMessage("--------------------@&@( .@&@@@@@-----------------")
writeMessage("----------------------@( ,@@@@@-------------------")
writeMessage("-------------------@&@* .@@---------------------")
writeMessage("-------------------@% *@&-------------------")
writeMessage("----------------@@( ,@@-----------------")
writeMessage("----------@%&@@/ ,&@@@@-----------")
writeMessage("--------@@. %@---------")
writeMessage("----------@@@@@@%/ ,#&@@@@@-----------")
writeMessage("-----------------@# ,@------------------")
writeMessage("-----------------@&&&@@@@@@@@%, (@@&@@@@@@&&@------------------")
writeMessage("-------------------------------@@# RM *&@&@@-----------------------------")
writeMessage("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------")
}
//After
+ func logo(){
writeMessage("""
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SNAP SCRAPER--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Last updated 2021:11:05-----&@@( ,%%%%%%%%%%%--------------------------

""")
}
