2025-04-29 12:16:15 <KipIngram   > Yeah, that's it.  I kept it in a stack cell in my version, and I was suporting floating point instead of double ints, so it got added to my exponent at the end.
2025-04-29 12:16:52 <KipIngram   > Or subtracted from, rather.

2025-04-29 13:17:42 <KipIngram   > And when I say floating point, I mean double precision - also 64 bits.

2025-04-29 14:23:19 <anthk_      > as I plan to write forth for the arduino (eforth, it's close) it's better to think on fixed point approaches
2025-04-29 14:25:37 <KipIngram   > That looks pretty nice.
2025-04-29 14:43:56 <anthk_      > yes, it's fun
2025-04-29 14:44:18 <anthk_      > the author likes for...next better, but at least it gives a do...loop option in the code
2025-04-29 14:44:31 <anthk_      > and yes, I want to buy its book on Eforth under Subleq
2025-04-29 17:19:23 <hello-operator> I'm not sure eForth implemented do...loop, at least not by default. There was a CD full of eForth implementations. for...next is easier to implement, which is why it was used, probably.

2025-04-29 19:45:13 <KipIngram   > I had a system once (one system back from my current one) that ran on Linux or MacOS.  I first wrote on Mac, but then they changed how the build tools worked and I was going to need to include some library I didn't want.  Apple seems to dislike people making direct system calls.  That was in fact when I bought my first personal notebook in about a decade - it ran Linux and I ported it.
2025-04-29 19:45:23 <KipIngram   > Ported my system, that is.
2025-04-29 19:46:04 <KipIngram   > I haven't worked on my current system in quite a while - I really want to just start a new one that reflects my latest thinking.
