15:35 <KipIngram> Morning all.

18:44 <cmtptr> hi

18:45 <KipIngram> Afternoon folks. The Forth is running on the new Linux platform.

18:48 <KipIngram> That was as straightforward as I was hoping it would be.

18:51 <KipIngram> The one mystery was that apparently I was moving one byte too many when I did the move for the error recovery snapshotting. One of those moves is the entire region, and I guess I was exceeding by 1. I reduced that by one byte and it works fine, and I confirmed that I can peek and poke the very last byte I expect to be in that region, but if I go even one byte higher I get an illegal memory access segfault.

18:55 <KipIngram> Hmmmm. For some reason I'm incrementing TOS in my <cmove code.

18:55 <KipIngram> Now sure why I would have done that...

18:55 <KipIngram> Oh, I bet I know why, and it's a BAD THING. That increment needs to be outside the <CMOVE call in one particular place.

18:56 <KipIngram> Interestingly, MacOS apparently didn't care that I went one byte out of bounds.

19:04 <mark4> i now have a semi working ray casting 3d engine using my uCurses text user interface. in a 100 x 30 text console im drawing a 200 x 120 bitmap because each char is a 2 x 4 array of dots :)

19:04 <mark4> so it LOOKS like a graphics mode yay lol

19:05 <mark4> it has a tendency to crash when you walk into walls and the color shading is not aligned with the wall corners for some reason

19:16 <cmtptr> i should do something productive today but after the past few weeks at work i think i'd rather shoot terrorists in rainbow six and toss stuffed mice down the hall for the cat to chase

19:21 <mark4> heh

19:21 <mark4> sounds like a good plan :)

19:21 <mark4> how about shooting terrorsts IRL and giving the casts real mice to play with :)

19:21 <mark4> cats

19:28 <KipIngram> So you're building text up out of those smaller "characters"?

19:31 <mark4> THOSE characters to be exact :)

19:31 <mark4> the utf codepoints for those start at 0x2800

19:31 <KipIngram> Very interesting.

19:31 <mark4> the number to the left of the glyps is the low order byte of their codepoint for eachg block of 8 glyphs

19:32 <mark4> im galling this the braile engine :)

19:32 <KipIngram> Nice. I've not mustered the desire to wade into Unicode.

19:32 <KipIngram> Because I suspect there's a TON of work involved.

19:32 <mark4> coloring is on a char by char basis tho, not dot by dot

19:32 <mark4> not really

19:32 <mark4> but it is a very confusing subject

19:33 <KipIngram> I guess I'm glad to hear it's not as bad as I thought it might be.

19:33 <KipIngram> I may change my mind someday.

19:33 <KipIngram> Ugh. There was something I was about to look up online, and I stopped to chit chat a minute and now I can't remember what it was. :-|

19:34 <KipIngram> I guess if it's important it will come back.

19:35 <mark4> ya dont worry about it for now

19:35 <mark4> if you decide later to fold it in its not a major pita, you dont have to totally rewrite everything else

21:58 <KipIngram> Oh, that's kind of neat.

21:59 <KipIngram> The rear-most building, that we can't see a corner on, doesn't seem "rotated" like the similarly colored parts of other buildings.

22:00 <KipIngram> I think that front corner and one side in shade does a lot to how we perceive the more forward ones.

22:00 <mark4> you can download and run it yourself now

22:00 <mark4> its all pushed to github :)

22:01 <KipIngram> :-)

22:01 <KipIngram> AH! Right out of nowhere I remembered what I was going to look up this morning.

22:01 <KipIngram> Ding...

22:01 <mark4> lol
