01:59:42 ##forth <vms14> look at my not so forth
04:29:38 ##forth <zelgomer> no
09:46:12 ##forth <veltas> vms14: Fun
09:47:48 ##forth <veltas> I prefer what xentrac would call 'lexical scoping' that Forths usually have, but it makes examples like this nicer to support this redefinition method
09:48:18 ##forth <veltas> But I'd be quite happy just using DEFER or vectored execution as Starting Forth calls it
09:49:59 ##forth <veltas> How are the terminal and webpage communicating?
12:51:59 ##forth <KipIngram> I haven't looked at it yet, but vms14 uses Perl, right? Can't the Perl just run within the web page but also communicate with a terminal? I don't know for sure - I've never tried it.
12:52:21 ##forth <KipIngram> I know you can do "either" with Perl - don't know if "both" works.
12:52:41 ##forth <KipIngram> Maybe that's blocked for security reasons?
12:54:39 ##forth <KipIngram> Ok, watching the video, that is pretty nifty.
14:12:25 ##forth <xentrac> KipIngram: sure, Perl is happy to communicate with whatever you want. Perl's a slut.
14:25:43 ##forth <veltas> Ah I do chuckle at IDEs that draw a line to show common indent levels
14:25:47 ##forth <veltas> My brain does it for free
