A lot of people seems to like Hyperbole, so I wanted to:

  1) Try Hyperbole
  2) Make sure that eev and Hyperbole are compatible
  3) Call the actions of Hyperbole buttons via sexps
  4) Implement Hyperbole buttons that call eev functions

My first "serious" attempts to learn Hyperbole were in 2019:

  http://angg.twu.net/e/hyperbole.e.html#hyperbole-eev-mail-1

We are in 2022 now and I still don't know how to write sexps whose
actions are (roughly) equivalent to _any_ of the Hyperbole buttons
mentioned here:

  https://www.gnu.org/software/hyperbole/FAST-DEMO

I mean, I know how to translate some of the buttons there to eev
sexps, but I don't know how to call the Hyperbole functions that
implement their back-ends... all that I know is that "Hyperbole keeps
things simple" - I tried to find a link to that message but couldn't,
sorry - and that the Hyperbole author is willing to help me with
high-level things but not with the "non-abstract parts":

I found that VERY frustrating, but at least it motivated me to write
an answer whose text I plan to reuse in the future. My answer is here:
