Stay single tasking! 16:47:28 Well, I am muti-threaded. But I meant the other kind of threading.. Indirect vs Subroutine to be exact. 16:48:10 Oh. 16:48:43 Like he says in "Moving Forth" - experiment on your own. 16:48:45 I've been feeling lately like I'm being too much of a purist by sticking to indirect threading. 16:49:02 Well, believe me I've done all the experimenting I care to. 16:49:12 Then you should be wise by now ;) 16:49:42 I think subroutine threading seems interesting enough. 16:49:53 Perhaps I am, but nontheless my environment is the unchanged. C imposes some very odd restrictions on what can be accomplished through indirect threading. 16:49:56 In spite of what I440r thinks about it. 16:50:04 --- join: I440r (~nospam@sdn-ap-032tnnashP0187.dialsprint.net) joined #forth 16:50:06 Hah! 16:50:12 When you talk about the devil... 16:51:01 hmm 16:51:46 Basically the problem is that I can't call primative definitions from within other primatives because the system hasn't been bootstraped yet.. There are about 100 chickens and twice as many eggs.. 16:52:10 The problem is currently 'solved', but I've never been happy with it. 16:52:50 STC provides another solution, but at what seems to be a tremendous cost. 16:52:52 male: C eggs can't be fun to deal with... 16:53:00 What cost? 16:53:49 C stack/locals CALL/RET.. You name it. Huge overhead. Not to mention the fact that C's lack of lexical scoping means that I would have to pass the context with every call. 16:54:46 Erm. Right, I forgot that you can't just use a sane way of coding it ;) 16:54:57 Bingo ;-) 16:55:04 I'm fighting the compiler tooth and nail. 16:55:05 GN! 16:55:14 Why not write it in assembly, and make it as small as possible? 16:55:29 That way you could easily port it, and write most of the Forth in Forth. 16:56:00 Well, small isn't so important as fast.. And I would, but it isn't that easy to port. And using assembly (believe it or not) drastically reduces the functionality of my language. 16:56:00 --- quit: Mur ("MUR!") 16:56:31 I started out in assembly and switched to C. There's no going back now. 16:56:56 Although, I've considered retargeting for GNU lightning or the like.. But it just isn't mature enough yet. 16:57:18 And c-- has been in a rut for as long as I can remember. 16:57:35 Hm. 16:58:06 If you write it in assembly and use STC, you could do a ton of fancy optimizations. 16:58:44 If I wrote it in assembly I wouldn't need to use STC. 16:58:51 Why is speed so important? 16:59:14 Speed is always important.. Anyone who says otherwise is using a dedicated system. 16:59:37 Depends on the task. 17:00:01 Sometimes size is more important, sometimes the simplicity is priority #1. 17:00:46 Actually, it doesn't. In a multi-user system every slice of the cpu makes a difference. 17:02:59 Hm. Okay then, have fun solving this problem :) 17:04:55 Sorry Speuler was busy doing something in the room 17:05:19 hoi 17:05:21 net terug 17:05:29 he how are you still working! 17:05:29 ben net met michiel aan het praten 17:05:41 nizchka: /join #bean 17:05:42 He hoe is het met michiel 17:05:48 daar zittie 17:06:30 hi ppl 17:06:55 im writing a memory allocation thingie for isforth now - with a 16 byte granularity instead of 4k :P 17:07:18 Good! 17:07:20 :) 17:08:06 its actually quite easy - but im trying to make the code as efficient as possible 17:14:32 Back--Well, I didn't really expect anyone to solve it (nobody has yet), I was just curious as to the public view on the matter. 17:14:52 I440r, still got that terminfo code on hold? 17:16:02 It seems that most of the C forths out there are token threaded anyhow, which I don't even consider an option. 17:17:23 Not to mention that Forth programmers seem to write some of the ugliest C code you'll ever find. 17:17:42 Heh. 17:17:52 Liar! Liar! I'm...perfect. 17:18:53 Not to say that its easy to write correct C without the compiler doing something foolish. 17:19:08 Sure you are, Robert. 17:19:09 ;-) 17:19:54 What are some other irc servers that carry forth channels? 17:20:28 Hmm.. 17:20:35 If you discover any, tell me! 17:21:20 I was just curious if there are any that folks like Jeff Fox frequent. 17:21:39 Not to say that I don't enjoy the company here ;-) 17:22:13 Sometimes I don't know why anyone bothers with usenet anymore. 17:22:43 Jeff Fox visits here. 17:23:01 Not that often, but if you wait long enough... 17:25:53 It certainly isn't anything urgent. 17:28:38 --- part: nizchka left #forth 17:39:08 male the terminfo code is released 17:39:19 i released 1.10b 17:40:06 this is the only irc network with an active #forth 17:44:21 Hmm... why always 'b' versions= 17:44:57 beta 17:45:02 Ah. 17:45:09 not stable yet 17:45:15 So THAT'S what win95b was :P 18:16:39 Right, well I looked at the code but it didn't look complete. 18:17:26 I like the new source layout, though. 18:19:44 I've actually been considering a system in which the terminfo description would be translated to the native language, in your case Forth. 18:21:37 Anyhow, I've got to be going.
