14:40:43 <Quartus_> hey crc
14:44:55 <crc> hi Quartus_ 
14:48:40 <Quartus_> what up, c-dawg? :)
14:51:30 <crc> not much
14:52:22 <Raystm2> Not much. heh. Quartus_ he just got toka to ack like a server. I suppose that's not much with experiance like ya'll have. :)
14:53:36 <Raystm2> Nay I say much, much. 
14:54:07 <crc> using an external tool; this could be done with retro as well
14:56:53 <Quartus_> which tool?
14:58:27 <crc> socket
14:58:38 <crc> http://www.jnickelsen.de/socket/
15:11:11 <Quartus_> thanks

16:07:47 <arke> hi crc 
16:09:03 <arke> crc: question ... retro reveals early, right? how do you write decorator words - as in, words that have the same name as some previous word but add functionailty to it and use the old one as well? ' name : name ... compile ... ; or something similar works but I'm just curious if you have some sort of mechanism to do this already
16:19:13 <crc> arke, try this:
16:19:14 <crc> macro: prior last @ >r last @ :link @ last ! ' dup >entry :class @ execute r> last ! ;
16:19:42 <crc> prior used to be in retro8, it was dropped due to lack of use in the 9.x releases
16:21:40 <arke> sweet :)
16:21:48 * arke analyzes to try and understand
16:21:57 * crc has been thinking of making the binding settable, e.g., "early on" / "early off" in 9.3
16:22:47 <tathi> crc: what's the advantage of early revelation?
16:22:49 <crc> it simply does a temporary relink of the dictionary to hide the most recent name. then a search for the old header, and compiles using its class handler.
16:23:18 <crc> tathi, it's been part of retro since at least release 4; allows for recursion by name
16:23:44 <tathi> ah.  tradition. :)
16:23:50 * crc will note that toka, his experimental forth-like language, does not use early binding of names to code
16:27:35 <arke> loops with recursion = nice :)
16:31:16 <arke> loc: : loop 0; tuck + swap 1- loop ; : sum 0 swap loop nip ; ' sum ;loc is sum
16:38:40 <tathi> : sum 0 dup rot ?do i + -1 +loop ;
16:41:06 <tathi> : sum 0 swap begin dup while tuck + swap 1- repeat drop ;
