Back when Forth was hot, there were several hardware implementations of the Forth machine by Chuck Moore and others. I remember one of the Forth journals (JFAR, or Asilomar, I think) had a Forth-in-hardware article by a guy named Klaxon Suralis that was a crackup. I've been looking for that one for ...

I set up the nLFC Wiki so that our Members could share code and information that might tend to be lost in a discussion thread. We had an initial flurry of activity, then a trickle, then just about nothing. Even the spammers seemed to lose interest. I have a support role here, and I'll do my best to ...

Anybody know a good low-cost webhost?
Dreamhost.com has just cheesed me of for the last time. ALH.net and the newLISP Fan Club are looking for a new web host. I've seen cniweb.net, slicehost, hostmonster, Wholesale Internet, and webhostingunleashed.com suggested here on another thread. Do you Fans have any more suggestions? This is goin...

Actually, I DID run an early version of a newLISP server on Dreamhost a couple of years ago, and it worked just fine. The problem is that they do not allow persistent processes, and will nuke anything running for more than a few hours. Maybe you could do it as a cron job, if you don't need it 24/7. ...

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by root access. Most web hosts will give you a shell, but full root priveleges would allow you to play around with all the other accounts hosted on your box, and you certainly wouldn't want them mucking around with yours! Ditto for loading your own OS. You'd h...

The top of stack is treated as a test for the if else then loop, which interestingly is the logic of this definition. gcd then calls itself recursively until it drops out of the loop. The rest is simply stack handling. Also interesting is that the commenting takes more ink than the definition itself...

Reva seems to be a compiled Forth, which means it's no longer an interactive language. Some of the of the nicest features of Forth, and NewLISP, come from their interactivity. Code can be translated into C or assembly for speed after the program is stable. The elegance of both languages help to make...

I think a 3-D viewer would be a great idea! And it needen't replace those Lots of Irritating and Silly Parentheses that the abstract thinkers seem to appreciate; it would just be an alternate, pictorial vision of the same thing. Think chemical formula vs. molecular model. One of the biggest hurdles ...

Good heads-up, m35, but can the Spider of Death truly be infamous if I've never heard of it? Probably so! I see a few de-linked articles in the Wiki's Index. The ones I've looked at did not have their pages password protected. It should be easy to re-list them on the Home page, and add a [protected:...

I was able to repost your article from the backup. There was no password on the file, so I am supposing that your article was erased by the same Forces of Evil that post the trash messages in the Comment section of the Home page.

Articles disappearing from the newLISP Wiki
cormullion reports that some articles have disappeared from the Http://alh.net/newlisp/wiki/ site. I think it's because they were not password protected. The easy way to do this is to always place a [protected:psilwen] at bottom of your Wiki postings. If your article is missing from the Wiki, please...
