This stack which 11:30:44 people have so much trouble manipulating should never be more than three or 11:30:44 four deep. 11:30:44 But as to stack parameters, the stacks should be shallow. On the i21 we have 11:30:44 an on-chip stack 18 deep. This size was chosen as a number effectively 11:30:46 infinite 11:30:48 eww 11:30:50 sorry 11:30:59 bad paste :( 11:31:18 * rob_ert notes that made no sense. 11:31:37 hm? 11:31:39 Speuler: are they available in starter kits serial i/o and such? How expensive? 11:32:15 i got me an prototyping board, designed+assembled not far from here. 11:32:42 paid 'bout 200$ for whole thing 11:32:48 rob_ert: A forth word should not have more than one or two arguments. This stack which people have so much troulbe manipulating should never be more than three or four deep.

Give me asm or BASIC. 12:27:34 forth is fun 12:28:07 :-) 12:28:21 I see it as a challenge. 12:28:39 Right now, I think it's totally impossible to code in forth. I'm trying to prove myself wrong. 12:30:00 i don't know about you, but i find that forth is way easier, faster, and more efficient to code in than something like C. and a hell of a lot more fun 12:30:38 rob_ert: just keep it simple. factor it up. a word shouldn't be more than 1 or 2 lines of code. keep each word simple, and it'll all be easier to understand and also very easy to debug 12:30:54 :-) 12:30:58 anyway, I'll bbl 12:31:08 ok 12:39:47 --- nick: PhoodPhrenzy -> CaffeineJunkie 12:49:45 --- join: Etaoin (~david@ljk16.sat.net) joined #forth 12:58:41 hi, #forth 12:59:51 howdy 13:11:53 --- quit: futhin ("gonna go and actually do stuff. ph33r the l33tness!") 13:16:33 what's happening? 13:17:15 Nothing. 13:17:21 As you maybe already have guessed. 13:17:53 yeah. 13:26:51 --- quit: XeF4 ("pois") 13:36:00 --- join: XeF4 (urahsr@12-245-116-85.client.attbi.com) joined #forth 13:36:17 hi again 13:38:20 hello again 13:40:34 hehe "free throw free throw !" is valid forth code :) 13:58:38 --- nick: CaffeineJunkie -> Speuler 14:03:48 Etaoin: hmm ... nope 14:04:08 "free" (gforth) doesn't leave you a stack par on its own 14:04:20 you'd call it with a parameter 14:05:02 like: 1000 allocate ( ... ) free ( .. ) 14:05:12 Speuler: well yeah. 14:05:20 sorry ... 14:05:36 1000 allocate .

I just don't have a very good grasp of what you are talking about 16:59:25 ah...my small mistake...Turkish belongs to Uralo-Altaic branch 16:59:30 oic 16:59:45 TheBlueWizard: sounds much better :) 16:59:53 and I haven't used assembly. 17:00:14 but Hungarian, Estonian, and Finnish are Finno-Ugric.... 17:00:50 so this is my first problem domain: a native, optimizing, codebank handling forth compiler for <16bit core picz 17:01:06 but Turkish and Finnish/etc. do look a bit similar...they use vovel harmony, uses a lot of suffixes, etc... 17:01:08 TheBlueWizard: thats right, i knew the same 17:01:14 vowel even 17:01:26 agglutinating langz all, yeah 17:02:10 hehe....but they are nothing compared to Navajo...it blows me off the Earth! :) 17:02:57 my second "research domain" is forth on PC under *nix (actually, just debian linux currently) 17:03:09 it did the same to the Japanese during WWII 17:03:17 are you searching for a FU grammar in general, or Hungarian specifically? 17:03:32 dabble means to play with a bit 17:03:39 id like yall to help me finding proper forums for my questions in these areas 17:03:41 any idea? 17:04:11 * TheBlueWizard isn't familiar with PIC programming 17:04:20 * rob_ert is :D 17:04:22 a bit :P 17:04:27 hey, everybody is a little linguist here? :)) 17:04:36 though #forth is indeed the proper forun for discussing Forth related stuff 17:04:41 lol 17:05:26 TheBlueWizard must b familiar w pix, but rather could b familiar w forth meta compiler writing ;) 17:05:53 when is this channel really active? 17:05:55 http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~arubin/hungarian.html 17:06:11 one: right now 17:06:13 what r the rush hourz here? 17:06:54 Etaoin: yeah...pity the Japanese...I read in some literature that after WW II, the codebreakers admitted they don't have much more than the phonetics...and I can see why :) 17:07:33 uh...I am not really familiar with metacompiling, though someday I'd like to tackle that :P 17:08:20 than, in what environment do u use forth? 17:08:31 and what for? 17:10:19 The: have you a link to a Navajo grammar somewhere? 17:10:29 oh, I have a few projects (all of them on back burners) involving Forth: my own little OS that uses Forth as a sort of monitor (a la Apple ][, Open Firmware), forth "gui" thingey (rather hard to explain), and somesuch 17:11:12 thats great 17:11:25 but what is a back burner? 17:11:28 XeF4: I also searched for Navajo grammar...as far as I can tell, there is no such webpage on it at all, though I had found some rather lame Navajo wordlist and such 17:11:41 solarium? ;) 17:11:50 TheBlueWizard: I saw a thing on that the other day and they used an encryption coding of english letters to english words to navajo words. A captured navajo serving in the military of the US was tortured and wasn't able to break the code even though he knew the language. 17:12:08 um..."put on a back burner" is an idiom meaning to put it off or put on hold, or something like that 17:12:43 ah, thx 17:13:05 but doesn it mean u r not programming in forth actively? 17:13:29 Etaoin: yeah, I know Navaho speakers do encode the English letters as well as words and such, but I didn't know the Japanese couldn't break the code even with the info "extracted" from those Navajo speakers 17:14:30 onetom: right...does not necessarily mean I am not actively coding in Forth...but right now, I am not actively coding in Forth...I have too many tasks to do! :P 17:15:04 like discussin navajoz ;) 17:16:11 lol...right now I'm vegging out here plus reading Web articles; earlier, I was out hauling groceries and moving stuff... 17:16:12 u r not lazy men, anyway. i havent seen so long msgz on any channel b4 ;) 17:16:20 so I deserve a little break ;) 17:17:10 onetom: there are some even longer interesting discussions that I've been witness to. 17:17:16 u know, in fact im yr boss, undercover :) 17:17:50 yeah, right.... 17:18:32 Etaoin: no the discussion is long but the msgz it is builded up by 17:18:41 built 17:19:02 the Hungarian URL ain't bad....(file it away) 17:19:35 let me proper check it 1st! 17:21:14 by the way I did locate a sample navajo text...it is at http://www.worldlanguage.com/Languages/Navajo.htm 17:21:55 note that it uses a lot of exotic letterings to represent various sounds that has no equivalent English sound 17:23:23 chkd: will do, highly condensed but still very informative and it seems error free 17:24:13 do u know of other forth irc channels? 17:24:23 probably on other ircnets? 17:24:27 I would be very surprised if all the plain latin chars correspond 1:1 with English sounds 17:24:58 hmm...nope...unless you go to another IRC net such as Dalnet...though this network seems to be the best for forth 17:25:12 there's always the newsgroup, I guess 17:25:29 yes...comp.lang.forth is pretty good 17:26:08 you can throw a question or two at comp.lang.forth, and you'd be bound to get some answers 17:26:23 I am sure there are PIC Forth coders out there 17:26:45 thx 4 ther promising advices 17:27:12 no problem :) 17:27:13 Hmm...
