2021-09-10 09:04:30 <rick_carlino1> EuroForth is starting today, for anyone interested: https://www.twitch.tv/4ther/schedule

2021-09-10 09:05:02 <rick_carlino1> EuroForth is the largest (only?) Forth conference and is 100% online for 2021 due to COVID.

2021-09-10 09:06:44 <eli_oat > thanks for the heads up rick_carlino1

2021-09-10 09:06:50 <eli_oat > do you know if it'll also be recorded?

2021-09-10 09:07:40 <rick_carlino1> Possibly- I think Twitch does that right?

2021-09-10 09:07:47 <rick_carlino1> Starts in 90 ish minutes

2021-09-10 09:08:47 <eli_oat > word, I can't watch live because of work :(

2021-09-10 10:15:44 <rick_carlino1> I am trying to build latest version from source (1d8c9f36). I have uncommented ENABLED += -DENABLE_SOCKETS and DEVICES += interface/sockets.retro. The socket words don't seem to be there though. Has anyone hit problems with socket support in recent versions?

2021-09-10 10:16:32 what is the host you are building on? I know that recently a build-wip.sh appeared in the repo, but I think it was maybe specific to certain hosts?

2021-09-10 10:16:38 this is a lark, though

2021-09-10 10:17:54 <rick_carlino1> Im on Xubuntu 64

2021-09-10 10:18:05 <rick_carlino1> hmm lemme try something out

2021-09-10 11:37:25 rick_carlino1: did you edit the GNUmakefile or the Makefile ?

2021-09-10 11:51:11 <rick_carlino1> Oh, I edited the Makefile.

2021-09-10 11:51:16 <rick_carlino1> crc

2021-09-10 11:52:38 gmake looks for GNUmakefile first. I'll add some comments to the Makefile to clarify this

2021-09-10 11:56:54 <rick_carlino1> crc that was the issue thank you

2021-09-10 12:40:07 <rick_carlino1> Just saw an interesting word on the EuroForth stream: ?[ if_condition ][ else_condition ]?

2021-09-10 12:40:24 <rick_carlino1> I imagine this is something similar to Retro's choose word.

2021-09-10 12:41:03 <rick_carlino1> It breaks the strictness of RPN though, which I am sometimes not a fan of. Interesting to see though. Never saw anything like that before.

2021-09-10 12:48:31 <rick_carlino1> Is anyone else streaming?

2021-09-10 12:54:20 <rick_carlino1> TIL Gforth has code coverage facilities. Neat: https://gforth.org/manual/Code-Coverage.html

2021-09-10 13:18:42 I'll try the coverage.fs when I'm able to get a working gforth again

2021-09-10 15:48:35 the pi pico arrived; I'll start porting napia to it tomorrow. I'll also look into attempting a nga port, though it'll not have much room for a full retro image due to the limited RAM

2021-09-10 15:52:50 napia on a pi pico is still super powerful and cool! Exciting news :D

2021-09-10 15:53:01 other than this, I've been tied up working on more debugging stuff (attempting to implement a backtrace) and continuing to experiment with getting unicode functional.

2021-09-10 16:09:06 I might implement an ASCII-only retro-on-napia, then swap out the strings & character words with the unicode-aware ones once they are finished

2021-09-10 23:00:08 <rick_carlino1> very excited to hear updates about the new Napia target. I bought a Pico explicitly for testing the beta, so please do let us know how it goes!

2021-09-10 23:32:24 will do

2021-09-10 23:35:39 I'm not having lick with the euroforth video; the visuals work, but I can't hear anything

2021-09-10 23:45:43 typing after being awake for 45 of the last 48 hours isn't conducive to avoiding typos :(
