Coded characters will make it tough, but . . . 15:37:27 thx 15:39:09 On the other hand, is there a different "reference" version of cf? Take "reference" very loosely. 15:39:34 Heh. Not that I know of, but I don't really fohttp://groups.google.co.uk/group/comp.lang.forth/msg/565afaca83907e72?hl=en&&q=LMATH99 15:39:37 llohttp://groups.google.co.uk/group/comp.lang.forth/msg/565afaca83907e72?hl=en&&q=LMATH99 15:39:41 grr 15:39:42 follow it 15:40:03 sorry about that 15:40:47 How do you usually sync between different copies of cf? 15:43:00 "sync" was the wrong word. I'd just like to learn and use a cf that's as similar as possible to what he's published for windows. 15:43:40 Ah. I don't know for sure, but I doubt there's much difference. 15:44:19 The kernels of the 2001 and 2005 versions were only very slightly different; most of the changes were in the source blocks. 15:44:50 I'd just try dropping the source blocks into an older colorforth and see if it works. 15:48:36 hm -- what is the best way to temporarily copy a string ? 15:49:09 sorry, I just found out that I don't need it 15:57:53 is there any way to create a word that creates a new word with a name that is automatically generated ? 15:59:13 see execute-parsing 15:59:24 you're using gforth? 15:59:29 e.g. --- : square dup * ; make-of square \ generates a new word square-of that returns on "square-of 5" "25" on the data stack 16:00:24 yep -- but for some reason I try to use ANSI forth only - I just want to know whether I was able to do it :) 16:00:46 execute-parsing can be written in standard forth 16:01:08 gforth has a compat/ directory which provides some gforth-specific facilities in standard Forth so they can be used portably 16:01:29 Hmm...I don't understand how square-of is different from square. But yeah, you can do that. 16:02:07 5 square \ leaves 25 on the data stack 16:02:12 square 5 \ stack underflow 16:02:32 oh. so square-of parses an argument out of the input stream? 16:02:43 yep 16:03:03 I hope that's just an example... :) 16:03:08 yep 16:03:19 and it's just an exercise ;) 16:03:59 Sure. Fair enough. You'd need a buffer to generate the new word name, and then use execute-parsing with : or CREATE or whatever. 16:05:12 awkward, but possible. :) 16:05:16 thanks so far :) 16:05:19 that's the point :p 16:06:40 I used it in my PPC assembler, so it can actually be useful at times. 16:07:15 well, I just want to know what forth is able to do 16:28:05 hm, I give up for today -- thanks for your help 16:28:07 bye :) 16:28:43 --- quit: benny99 (Client Quit) 16:57:31 --- quit: sixforty ("ircII+tkirc2") 17:00:41 --- quit: TR2N (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)) 17:14:39 --- join: TR2N (i=email@89.180.164.181) joined #forth 17:15:25 --- join: X-Scale (i=email@89.180.164.181) joined #forth 17:15:58 --- part: X-Scale left #forth 17:16:02 --- join: sixforty (n=sixforty@68-25-230-66.pools.spcsdns.net) joined #forth 18:54:59 --- nick: gogonkt_ -> gogonkt 20:08:36 --- join: nighty__ (n=nighty@210.188.173.245) joined #forth 21:12:14 --- join: proteusguy (n=proteusg@110.77.145.40) joined #forth 21:24:50 * madgarden is away: aseepin' 22:28:54 --- quit: proteusguy (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)) 22:42:08 --- join: proteusguy (n=proteusg@zeppelin.proteus-tech.com) joined #forth 23:42:42 --- quit: sixforty ("ircII+tkirc2") 23:59:59 --- log: ended forth/09.07.22
