2024-03-04 19:26:13 <lispmacs[work]> somebody recently added a guix package called "smithforth" that is a hand-coded ELF. The source for the package is a text file with comments for part of the headers and each opcode instruction

2024-03-04 19:29:06 <zelgomer    > geez. and i was calling my binaries "hand crafted". this is psychotic
2024-03-04 19:32:40 <Al2O3       > this is lovely, and supported by a tutorial video?

2024-03-04 19:35:31 <lispmacs[work]> I believe there may be some portability issues, however
2024-03-04 19:35:57 <zelgomer    > lol
2024-03-04 19:36:09 <zelgomer    > you don't say
2024-03-04 19:37:29 <drakonis    > lol
2024-03-04 19:37:34 <drakonis    > it has maximum portability issues
2024-03-04 19:37:47 <drakonis    > it only works on x86
2024-03-04 19:40:42 <lispmacs[work]> I think also it is not quite fully POSIX compliant
2024-03-04 19:41:09 <zelgomer    > posix doesn't define an abi
2024-03-04 19:41:10 <drakonis    > how could it ever
2024-03-04 19:41:15 <zelgomer    > exactly
2024-03-04 19:41:52 <drakonis    > it only works with the syscall interface for a specific linux target
2024-03-04 19:42:16 <drakonis    > looks like its x86-64, thankfully
2024-03-04 19:50:37 <lispmacs[work]> the only part confusing me is, in the text file, where are the arithmetic words defined?
2024-03-04 19:51:32 <drakonis    > they're defined elsewhere
2024-03-04 19:51:55 <drakonis    > https://dacvs.neocities.org/SF/system220711fs.txt in here
2024-03-04 19:54:23 <lispmacs[work]> okay, thanks
2024-03-04 20:02:18 <drakonis    > https://dacvs.neocities.org/SF/SForth220711dmp.txt the binary dump
2024-03-04 20:02:24 <drakonis    > fully commented
2024-03-04 21:01:28 <Al2O3       > very interesting and well done series of videos on the topic
