18:43:57 <crc> first cgi script in retro: http://rx-core.org/dev/corpse?post_id=1021&test=foo
18:44:11 <crc> does nothing useful, but gives me a starting point
18:46:40 <docl> cool
18:48:00 <foucist> crc: show me the code
18:51:20 <crc> foucist: http://gist.github.com/605606
18:52:08 <foucist> crc: what's the env? bit
18:52:16 <foucist> why 1 9
18:52:20 <crc> reads an environment variable
18:52:36 <foucist> which
18:52:47 <crc> foucist: port 9 in the modified vm is used to read an environment variable
18:53:22 <crc> env? could read any requested environment variable
19:00:58 <foucist> crc: if you do any extended cgi/web stuff i recommend setting up a new file for mostly web code with little bits of forth inserted
19:02:14 <foucist> like <?f query_string puts ?>
19:02:15 <foucist> or whatever
19:02:25 <foucist> it would get setup in the main code
19:02:37 <foucist> : query_string "QUERY_STRING" get ;
19:02:51 <foucist> and then be callable in the web template
19:03:15 <foucist> crc: just an idea, separating code and html is essential :P
19:03:41 <crc> it's helpful, but not essential for small projects :)
19:05:15 <crc> a lot depends on how much I do with this. I'd like to do a couple of small things, but have no plans that would need a real separation between code and html.
19:05:15 <foucist> crc: what's the extension for retroforth files? .rf?
19:05:22 <crc> .rx currently
19:06:18 <foucist> how about .erx for embedded rx
19:06:34 <foucist> and then do .html.erx  .css.erx etc depending
19:07:12 <foucist> .js.erx
19:07:30 <crc> I could do that if I actually put together a template system
19:08:39 <foucist> good programmers borrow code, great programmers steal outright
19:08:41 <foucist> ;)
19:09:33 <crc> it's hard to borrow/steal when you're using a language no one else is using...
