05:54:19 <PoppaVic> Mornin'
05:54:31 <Robert> Hi
05:54:39 <PoppaVic> How's by you?
05:55:11 <Robert> Sleep, food, ice cream.. and hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy.. Just fine :)
05:55:34 <PoppaVic> Sleep is good... I could use more, but <shrug> Coffee ;-)
05:58:24 <Robert> Heh
05:58:29 <Robert> I slept over 14 hours.
05:59:23 <PoppaVic> I stayed up & running here until my eyes went square, then read until about 1am - then sacked.. But, it seems not to have been too effective.
06:15:31 <serg_ghost> Robert: once i was awake over 30 hours but after this i was sleeping nearly 20

06:23:00 <Robert> Hehe.
06:23:11 <Robert> Serg, you're so odd :)
06:23:13 <mur> argh rusty langage skills
06:23:53 <mur> hitchhiker's guide seems to be must for every swede. i am sure everyone is forced to read that! >:)
06:24:09 <Robert> We are.

07:00:54 <mur__A> yes :)

07:27:40 <PoppaVic> Shit.. *sigh* I can't see a way around the autoshit.. I really can't. Other solutions remind me too much of the cp/m-era.

08:32:32 <PoppaVic> "dead" is more accurate
08:32:51 <ianni> true.

10:29:34 <ianni> how do i load a file in gforth?
10:30:10 <ianni> hmm - maybe i should learn blocks..
10:30:49 <PoppaVic> ugh
10:31:05 <ianni> ugh to?
10:31:06 <PoppaVic> use include|require <this is a filename>
10:31:22 <PoppaVic> blocks suck so hard that I could kill them for having them.
10:31:30 <ianni> well
10:31:37 <ianni> I only just learned what they are
10:31:41 <ianni> I like the idea of having something always there
10:31:55 <PoppaVic> huh?
10:32:14 <ianni> like the fact that it keeps it within the forth.. i mean what if forth was the only thing on the computer
10:32:40 <ianni> I have an outdated forth book i think
10:32:53 <PoppaVic> <shrug> Yes, blocks are handy when there is no OS.
10:34:14 <ianni> well the integration of it and the interpreter just seems appealing, without knowing all the details of the implementation
10:35:11 <ianni> or interface rather
10:35:34 <PoppaVic> A proper design would have made it fully transparent <shrug> As long as you are happy ;-)
10:36:02 <ianni> well, it'd be cool, i think
10:36:11 <ianni> to work entirely within one interpreter
10:36:19 <PoppaVic> "cool"
10:36:25 <ianni> :)
10:36:42 <ianni> true true
11:55:11 <ianni> god, this emacs crabon port is 100meg
11:55:16 <ianni> a 100 meg text editor!
11:55:20 <ianni> that's jsut wrong.. :)
11:55:51 <ianni> *and* it crashes..

12:19:09 <ramnull> Hey Speuler.
12:19:18 <Speuler> hi
12:19:32 <ramnull> Speuler: You use Nasm at all?
12:19:48 <Speuler> tiny little bit
12:21:29 <ramnull> I'm curious, If I have an istruc, can I declare it thusly ....   _variable_ "mystruc", dd istruc foobar  ?
12:22:03 <ramnull> ;macro - construct a forth variable
12:22:03 <ramnull> %macro _variable_ 3.nolist  ;usage: var 'name',name,value
12:22:03 <ramnull>  code %1,%2
12:22:03 <ramnull>  call dovariable
12:22:03 <ramnull>  dd %3
12:22:04 <ramnull> %endmacro
12:22:13 <Speuler> just try it. 
12:22:19 <Speuler> if it works, you can
12:22:27 <ramnull> Heh.
12:24:57 <ramnull> Just a sec.
12:30:06 <ramnull> Guess not.
12:33:40 <ramnull> Aaaah. But I can make a variable pointing to the symbol of the struct.

15:14:09 <ianni> heh :P
15:33:22 <GnuVince> Can anyone give me a hand?
15:33:36 <GnuVince> I am a Forth newbie and a problem is giving me problems.
15:37:18 <a7r> what kind of problem?
15:41:06 <GnuVince> ok
15:41:26 <GnuVince> I want to write a word to convert bin to ascii
15:41:30 <GnuVince> Right now I have this
15:41:42 <GnuVince> : b2a cr depth 0 do emit loop ;
15:41:57 <GnuVince> But it displays things backward :)
15:42:13 <GnuVince> any suggestion?
15:42:14 <a7r> it isn't backward, it's just popping off the stack
15:42:27 <GnuVince> Yeah, but the output is backward.
15:42:35 <GnuVince> b2a
15:42:35 <GnuVince> dlrowolleh si drowssaP ehT ok
15:42:42 <PoppaVic> I rewrote it to work nicer, myself.
15:43:06 <PoppaVic> order? and defs?, too
15:43:39 <a7r> GnuVince: either reorder it on the stack, or put it in memory, and push each byte onto the stack as you go.
15:44:06 <a7r> or you could go w/ some type of pick approach, but that would suck
15:44:17 <GnuVince> a7r: reordering it is not exactly easy, the number of numbers can vary
15:50:05 <GnuVince> Weird...
15:50:10 <GnuVince> >r is broken in gforth?
15:50:19 <GnuVince> I do 2 >r and I get an error
15:50:27 <GnuVince> but it works in pfe
