Hey all, I'm working on compilers again... in particular, a fast parser for Python-like syntax, which outputs something resembling Forth. I might try coding it in RF at some point... some of my older prototypes ran on IsForth, and I haven't been able to write a cleaner version in C or even Python. It'd be nice to have the two languages working hand in hand, and I'm starting to think it's doable...
I use Python all the time now, but it's not efficient enough for a lot of things I'd like to use it for.... PDAs, kernel code, web scripts, small quick programs... I could really use a "RetroPython"!
Anyway, just wanted to say hello, and that's what's on my mind... Yes, it's really 4am... too much coffee yesterday!
P.S. - This is important work you guys are doing... obviously a lot of it is experimental, and still changing, but you're paving the way for the next generation OS -- small, fast, comprehensible! In a few years I think we can say goodbye to these damn things that take a month just to recompile...
