16:02:50 <crc> I've added symbolic names for the new instructions, but am now stuck waiting for a list of their exact usage before I can work on the extended compiler.

16:09:10 <foucist> hey crc
16:09:33 <foucist> crc: i guess you've seen zed shaw's EaRing stuff?
16:09:39 <foucist> since he hangs on #concatenative ..
16:11:42 <crc> foucist: nope
16:11:54 <crc> I haven't been in #concatenative much lately
16:12:30 <crc> I've mostly been hacking on retro, working, and spending time with my family.
16:12:57 <foucist> cool

16:13:40 <foucist> first is the slides
16:13:59 <foucist> MRI = matz's ruby implementation
16:14:06 <foucist> thoguht it might be interesting to you
16:14:25 <foucist> due to the assembler nature of it
16:15:01 <crc> I've actually drifted away from assembly for the most part
16:15:23 <foucist> it's not assembler per se ;)
16:15:26 <foucist> check it out ;)
16:15:36 <foucist> guess you could call it a VM
16:18:56 <crc> neat
16:19:02 <crc> the slides are funny :)
16:22:37 <crc> the current retro code runs on a portable vm (there are implementations in C, Java 1.x (Applet), Java 2 Micro Edition, and JavaScript)
16:23:34 <foucist> cool
16:24:49 <crc> speed is acceptable, but not stellar. There is an experimental implementation of the VM with a lot of fancy stuff enabled (caching of stack elements, jit compilation, dynamic creation of new instructions) that early tests indicate could be nearly as good as native code.
