00:53 <tabemann> I emailed terry a short while ago

16:28 <lisbeths> I would like to read through jonesforth and recurisvely ask questions in this irc channel each time I come up with something I do not understand until I understand all of it

16:49 <cmtptr> good luck

16:52 <lisbeths> Thank you. I will not do this today but I will do it so long as that is okay to do in here. This way I never have to ask dumb forth questions ever again.

16:52 <lisbeths> Or I might not do it today.

18:24 <crest> lisbeths: understanding a forth system completly is a laudable goal

18:25 <crest> and jonesforth easier to understand than most

18:44 <mark4> i hate jones forth grrrr

18:44 <mark4> x4 is better :P

18:44 <mark4> and im currently working on a 64 bit verison that im going to call x64

18:45 <mark4> changing from direct threaded to sub threaded

18:45 <mark4> jonesforth is annoying, im positive he copied primitvies out of x4 (formerly isforth)

19:39 <lisbeths> potentially you could run some code in jonesforth which causes you to gain new words which allow you to allocate @ and ! to 64 bit memory. maybe I'm wrong though.

19:58 <crc> mark has a few forths of his own, no need for him to deal with jonesforth

21:53 <mark4> jonesforth just annoys me for being well known while my forth which is at least 10 yeras older is only known in here lol

21:54 <mark4> dammit LO

22:22 <crest> mark4: care to share a link to the source code?

22:22 <crest> imo jonesforth isn't know for being a great forth, but as an example of literate programming

22:24 <crest> there are a lot more "interesting" forth systems like mecrisp stellaris with its self hosting optimizing compiler

22:25 <crest> but its source code is a mixture of german, english, arm asm and quirky humor

22:32 <mark4> to my 64 bit forth? its not on github yet, its still in its initial port stage

22:32 <mark4> the original 32 bit forth is at github.com/mark4th there are 2 forths there, the x32 and the thumb2 versions both running under Linux

22:40 <tabemann> hey guys

22:43 <tabemann> mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut, Mecrisp-Stellaris zu verstehen

22:43 <mark4> say what?

22:44 <tabemann> ich kann nur das Englisch im Code

22:45 <tabemann> that's my point - I can't understand Mecrisp-Stellaris's code aside from the English

22:45 <tabemann> ich muss mein Deutsch verbessern

22:47 <tabemann> on another note

22:47 <tabemann> I'm spending too much time watching my blinkie on the F407

22:48 <tabemann> it keeps going in circles with four different-colored LEDs, while constantly changing its rate of going around

23:26 <crest> tabemann: if you need translations of the mecrisp comments from german to english feel free to ask

23:27 <crest> but some of comments and symbol names aren't all that helpful to native speakers
