2024-02-06 20:15:14 Writing forth makes me ask questions I don't think ever came up in a different language. It's kind of wonderful but also frustrating. 2024-02-06 20:16:36 I was writing something pretty trivial - creating a buffer, and having a word for appending to it. But then I start thinking, should it be similar to a string (count,memory) or do I keep an offset with the buffer? 2024-02-06 20:19:12 This time I settled on on a word that reserves some memory, say : array ( n -- ) ... ; and : ptr ( array -- ) create 0 , , ; but both ways can probably work.
