2021-06-30 02:59:22 <uzi_ > i noticed, _ is used for space then if string includes "_" how can we represent it?

2021-06-30 05:20:32 'underscore_here s:format

2021-06-30 05:21:52 or set the RewriteUnderscores variable to 0 to disable the substitution

2021-06-30 05:33:35 <uzi_ > hm

2021-06-30 13:36:15 <john_ceph > Hi

2021-06-30 13:40:42 <eli_oat > hey john_ceph

2021-06-30 14:12:16 hi john_ceph, eli_oat

2021-06-30 14:57:36 Hi durrendal

2021-06-30 14:59:10 hey crc, how's it goin?

2021-06-30 14:59:31 Pretty good

2021-06-30 15:01:48 I'm adapting to a new work schedule (now 5am to 2pm), so I have considerably more time in the afternoon & evening now

2021-06-30 15:03:07 <eli_oat > oooh, self imposed or a change up at work?

2021-06-30 15:04:21 <eli_oat > I always wanna start real early to quit sooner, but my kids don't allow for that :P

2021-06-30 15:04:23 Change at work. I get to work on inventory management for the first 2-3 hours before we open, then other tasks as needed for the remaining time

2021-06-30 15:04:51 <eli_oat > nice

2021-06-30 15:05:03 So far (this is day 3), it's been nice to get out much earlier

2021-06-30 15:06:56 <eli_oat > I am day 3 into bug fixing a nightmare issue

2021-06-30 15:07:04 <eli_oat > but there is now finally light at the end of the tunnel

2021-06-30 15:09:08 ah man, I can't do early mornings, I am not a morning person by any means

2021-06-30 15:09:30 though getting off at 2pm does sound nice

2021-06-30 15:09:46 eli_oat: what bug nightmare have you been entertaining?

2021-06-30 15:10:22 <eli_oat > a sort of significant data integrity issue triggered by a very delicate data import

2021-06-30 15:10:22 crc: since we're in a forth related channel, any chance you're handling that inventorying in retro?

2021-06-30 15:10:27 <eli_oat > after this, should be rock solid, though

2021-06-30 15:10:57 durrendal: unfortunately not

2021-06-30 15:11:24 Or at least, not entirely

2021-06-30 15:11:45 not entirely means there's some forth somewhere :)

2021-06-30 15:12:02 eli_oat: oof, sounds fun to debug

2021-06-30 15:12:21 Parts (label generation, quick count reporting) use tools written in forth; but the main application we use is in Java :(

2021-06-30 15:13:18 (I do have an order tracking/management application written mostly in forth though)

2021-06-30 15:25:05 I'm just now starting to look into forth, so I love hearing you've got real world applications running, especially something that seems complex

2021-06-30 15:28:13 <john_ceph > Yay, I finished porting impexus to rasc.

2021-06-30 15:28:37 <john_ceph > Already pushed: https://codeberg.org/jmf/impexus

2021-06-30 15:30:50 <john_ceph > The standard text interface (0) is implemented and works. Now that I am satisfied with the assembler, I might finally find time to also do the keyboard input code :D

2021-06-30 16:19:46 good news john_ceph +1

2021-06-30 16:43:42 Nicely done :)

2021-06-30 16:44:43 I will test this tomorrow and see about porting a couple of drivers over from the my old copy of the prior implementation

2021-06-30 16:53:21 Hello WilhelmVonWeiner

2021-06-30 16:54:50 hey crc!

2021-06-30 16:55:02 just got made redundant so i'm gonna write Retro in OCaml.

2021-06-30 16:55:40 need to... relearn ocaml.

2021-06-30 17:10:23 <john_ceph > Hi WilhelmVonWeiner

2021-06-30 17:13:36 how are y'all?

2021-06-30 17:17:01 I'm resting a bit (too hot to do much at the moment); John updated impexus to use his latest assembler

2021-06-30 17:23:10 Nga is so great. Suprised the assembler isn't written in Muri....

2021-06-30 17:23:35 <john_ceph > The assembler is written in Retro though :)

2021-06-30 17:33:28 <john_ceph > I am trying to get the Retro listener to run in my Nga implementation but it crashes somewhere.

2021-06-30 18:03:55 Any idea how far it gets?

2021-06-30 18:15:35 <john_ceph > crc: Not sure yet.

2021-06-30 18:18:53 <john_ceph > crc: It seems to poll the keyboard correctly. I am just not sure which code I have to send in order to let it process the whole line...

2021-06-30 18:23:57 <john_ceph > I give the string "#12 n:put" followed by #10 to it through the keyboard interface, however it doesn't seem to swallow it as I would expect.

2021-06-30 18:24:54 that should work :(

2021-06-30 18:28:23 <john_ceph > When I write a program doing "#100 [ c:get c:put ] times", it correctly prints the string I got as keyboard input string.

2021-06-30 18:32:05 How much memory is available for the image?

2021-06-30 18:33:04 <john_ceph > I tell it that it has 100'000 cells.

2021-06-30 18:33:39 <john_ceph > Actually 400'000.

2021-06-30 18:33:53 <john_ceph > Here's my placeholder keyboard code: https://bpa.st/6VSA

2021-06-30 18:34:00 Ok, so memory isn't an issue

2021-06-30 18:46:50 Nothing stands out to me as incorrect in this

2021-06-30 19:05:26 <john_ceph > Hm, I'll have to check it out properly tomorrow. Maybe some buffer lands in an area that is reserved by some x86 stuff (although it shouldn't).

2021-06-30 19:05:41 <john_ceph > Night
