Re: [Factor-talk] Factor shyness on Mac

2008-12-09 Thread John Benediktsson
 I think this bug is now fixed. Let me know if the latest binary solves
 the problem.

It looks like the latest version is not able to Hide (Cmd-H)?

Is anyone else having that problem?

Thanks,
John.

 The assertion in question is guarded by a #ifdef FACTOR_DEBUG. Why is

Yes - I had DEBUG set for another application I was working with, and

That works now.

Perhaps you could have a look at the docs website, which is pretty

[Factor-talk] Symlinks

2010-01-19 Thread John Benediktsson
It appears that Factor isn't able to detect file modifications (using
refresh-all) for files that are contained in a directory through a
symlink.

To reproduce:

1) Make a directory my-vocab, with a my-vocab.factor file.

2) Make a symlink from inside of work to that directory.

3) Confirm that USE: my-vocab loads properly from ${FACTOR}/work/my-vocab.

4) Change something inside of my-vocab.factor.

5) Try to refresh-all, and see that it did not pick up the changes.

If there is something I'm missing, please let me know?

Thanks,
John.

I wrote a blogpost about some basic examples of using the Factor web

You might also like to follow the factor-blog-tutorial which builds up a

Regarding the SQLite error, where did you put the DLL?  Try

  4 : hello ( -- ) Hello world print ;

  6 MAIN: hello

 This works in the Listener.
 However when I run from the command line

 Factor hello-world.factor


If you run it like that, it does not execute the MAIN: word.  Try running it
like:

./factor -run=hello-world

Or, if you'd rather run it as a single file script, remove MAIN: and
just call the hello word at the end of the file.

It would help if you attached some code, but you should be able to get your

 It adds all words from foo.factor into the current vocab.

 That looks like a bug—in script mode, loading messages should be

Re: [Factor-talk] getopt; commandline parsing Re: Invoke MAIN: from commandline script file?

2011-08-20 Thread John Benediktsson
If you want to use your arg get code, you can:

USE: command-line

: main ( -- )
command-line get parse-command-line help get . ;

In this case, command-line is the list of arguments to your script.

Best,
John.

 Okay, factor -help ios7crypt.factor works. It seems Factor ignores
 arguments after the first script name.

 How can I rearrange the shebang so that ./ios7crypt.factor -help sends the
 argument to factor after the script name?

 For example, in Common Lisp a multilineshebang rearranges arguments so that
 the script name is forcibly passed twice:

 #!/bin/bash
 #|
 exec clisp -q -q $0 $0 ${1+$@}
 exit
 |#

 If there's a way to do multiline shebangs in Factor, then ./ios7crypt.factor
 -help can be run correctly.

 I think -script was a relic of the past; it doesn't appear to be
 necessary anymore. The main remaining caveat with #! is that it needs to be
 followed by whitespace.

 There might be a getopt-like parser library, but I don't know of it.
 Maybe someone else does. However, the VM will parse options of the form -foo
 or -foo=bar and set them as variables in the global namespace for you, which
 you can access with the get function. For example:

 $ ./factor -foo -zim=zang -flux=rad
 ( scratchpad ) foo get .
 t
 ( scratchpad ) zim get .
 zang
 ( scratchpad ) flux get .
 rad

Re: [Factor-talk] sequences and the stack

2011-08-21 Thread John Benediktsson
Also, for your case a sequence of two elements can be treated a bit like a map 
of key/value pairs.  You can use the assocs vocabulary to manipulate your 
sequence (called an association list or 'alist' in the documentation).

Try:

( scratchpad ) USE: assocs
( scratchpad ) \ assoc-map help
( scratchpad ) \ assoc-each help

 I need to translate this to factor.

 foo(param, y, x) = x y param foo

 I have a solution:
 rangeA rangeB param [ foo ] curry [ swapd [ call ] 2curry each bar ] 2curry
 each

 For example,
 rangeA = { a b c }
 rangeB = { 1 2 3 }
 param =  
 foo = append append write ;
 bar =  print ;

 { a b c } { 1 2 3 }[ append append write ] curry [ swapd

 Result is :

 I think my solution is bloated with partial applications. Maybe someone can

Well, here's three versions for inspiration.

1) Given a 'foo' quotation that takes elements from each and prints it out:

: foo ( a b foo: ( x y -- z ) -- )
[ with map   join print ] 2curry each ; inline

( scratchpad ) { 1 2 3 } { a b c }
   [ append ] foo

2) Given a 'foo' and a 'bar' that acts on the resulting sequence from
'foo'ing:

: bar ( a b foo: ( x y -- z ) bar: ( z -- ) -- )
[ [ with map ] 2curry ] dip compose each ; inline

( scratchpad ) { 1 2 3 } { a b c }
   [ append ] [   join print ] bar

3) Taking version #2 and rewriting with fry quotations:

USE: fry

: bar ( a b foo: ( x y -- z ) bar: ( z -- ) -- )
'[ _ with map @ ] curry each ; inline

Better might be to use some combinators to act on the sequence each grabbing

Re: [Factor-talk] Metadata

2011-08-27 Thread John Benediktsson
I don't think versioning the vocabularies included in Factor is necessary.  You 
don't see versions in standard libraries of other languages.  However, it would 
be nice if released versions of Factor reported their version numbers properly.


On Aug 27, 2011, at 12:32 PM, Matt Gushee m...@gushee.net wrote:

 Hi, all--
 
 I'm wondering what the Factor community would think of including certain
 kinds of metadata in the source code for vocabularies and for the Factor
 itself.
 
 My starting point for this line of thinking was that I had played with
 Factor for a while a couple of years ago, then dropped it for a while
 ... and I wanted to know what version I had installed. So my first
 thought was to go to the listener and try
 
  version
 
 Nope. Okay, how about
 
  factor-version
 
 ? No again. And so on through several variations ... nothing. Nor could
 I find anything in the online help. Nor any file in the source directory
 to indicate the version (or revision date). And it occurs to now, which
 should be obvious, that I can probably use Git to find out some
 pertinent info. However:
 
 * Not everyone is using Git.
 
 * Version info is useful, not just for the purpose I mentioned, but
 also for debugging.
 
 * It seems desirable to be able to query version info via the listener,
 and probably also programatically
   for the purpose of checking dependencies among vocabularies.
 
 Furthermore, there is probably other metadata that would be a good idea
 to maintain. For example, if Factor becomes widely used, there might be
 a situation where different developers distribute similarly- or
 identically-named vocabularies. So we should have the developer's name,
 or email address, or some other identifier that serves to distinguish a
 given vocabulary from a different one with the same name.
 
 Personally, I feel pretty strongly about this; if I were in charge of
 development I would make at least the above-mentioned items *mandatory*
 for all language components, such that a vocabulary would fail to load
 or compile if it didn't include the required metadata. But I think I've
 said enough. I will leave it up to more experienced folks to decide
 whether and how to implement this idea. Thanks for reading!

Re: [Factor-talk] TryRuby, etc.

2011-08-28 Thread John Benediktsson

 As a newcomer, I have to agree somewhat. It's frustrating when
 examples from Help don't work because Factor has changed since the
 help was written. However, even with errors (inconsistencies?)
 Factor's Help system is very useful.


What examples from help do not work?  Generally all the examples you find in
Factor's Help (or on docs.factorcode.org) should work.

Best,
John.

Re: [Factor-talk] frequency of vocabularies

2011-09-11 Thread John Benediktsson
Keep in mind that tools.test is largely used for unit tests (-tests.factor 
files) and the help vocabularies are used for documentation (-docs.factor 
files).

Also, to be more complete, you can look for USE: instructions (less common) 
that are like USING: but for a single vocabulary.

Re: [Factor-talk] Graphviz unit tests

2011-09-18 Thread John Benediktsson

 - The current tests pass on my machine.  But then, my machine = a Debian
 box
  with Graphviz 2.26.3 installed (since I guess 2.28 is too bleeding-edge
 for
  Debian) and erg's plugin-list fix reverted (which I'm certainly thankful
 for,
  but 2.26 doesn't have the gvPluginList function; ugh).  So, grain of salt
 I
  guess.


I get a kernel-error trying to run the first smoke-test (5 K_n), with
Graphviz 2.28.0 on Mac OS X 10.7.1 x86_64.  And running graphviz test
causes Factor to quit unexpectedly... which might be a different bug?

 I hate Graphviz.  I really, really do.

 I'm not sure about the kernel-error, but if the unexpected quitting is
 anything
 like previous issues I've come across, their source code habitually calls
 exit(), which kills the UI listener since they share the same process (I
 experimented once with forking the FFI calls, but that's a no-go on
 Windows,
 so).  If you -run=listener to test, you might be able to see if a message
 gets
 printed by Graphviz to stderr.  Maybe that'll give us more info?

 (If it's further similar to other problems I've had with Graphviz, the
 error
 message will be a single line buried in some undocumented corner of some
 messy
 source code that hasn't been discussed anywhere that's indexed by Google.
  Joy.
 I hope for Graphviz's sake that I'm just really incompetent at reading C
 code.)

 Thanks for testing,

You might also be interested in some of the words in sequences which

find-last.

( scratchpad ) { bread eggs milk } [ eggs = ] find

--- Data stack:

If you're curious how it is implemented, you can type: \ find see and then

  Hi ---

 Finally getting around to developing my first serious Factor code and I
 have a quick question.  I'm a Forth programmer (although of late it has been
 mostly my own bastardized version of Forth).  I'm thinking of one immediate
 use of Combinators as a way of eliminating some of the unsightly procedural
 code that lives in the kind of Forth function I would write inside of, say,
 a Begin While Repeat loop.

 But if what I would have wanted to do with my loop is loop through every
 item in a collection of some sort until some condition was true and at that
 point exit the loop early, is there a way to do this using Combinators?  Are
 there versions of the primary ones that will operate on the target sequence
 only until a condition is reached?  I will of course peruse the
 documentation, but I thought I would just ask in case someone could steer me
 there more quickly (and in case some other newbie has the same question).

 Thanks much.

Re: [Factor-talk] Finding words with given stack effect

Well, you could do this:

( scratchpad ) all-words [ stack-effect (( x p q -- )) effect= ] filter

But, it only checks for arity (meaning it would match an effect (( a b c --
)) also).

If you want to check the stack names in the effect, you can do this:

: my-effect= ( effect1 effect2 -- ? )
{ [ effect= ] [ [ in ] bi@ = ] [ [ out ] bi@ = ] } 2 ;

( scratchpad ) all-words [ stack-effect (( x p q -- ) my-effect= ]
filter .
{ bi }

Re: [Factor-talk] Factor for Dummies

2012-02-18 Thread John Benediktsson
Also, you might find the First Program example interesting (its available in 
your Help browser, and also on the online documentation web site):

 Programming in a concatenative language is very different. You certainly 
 don't want to think in terms of variables and assignment. Instead, think 
 about the intermediate results you want, and how to put them onto the stack. 
 In this case, the relevant result is the sum of the list, but you also need 
 to keep the original list around. After you have those two, you divide. Using 
 the math.vectors command v/n (vector divided by scalar), we get   
 { 1 2 3 }  ! the list
 dup! make a copy of the list
 length  ! get the length of the copy
 v/n  ! divide the two
  
 Words like dup are only suitable for very simple tasks since they are 
 confusing when used excessively. Instead, the combinators cleave, spread, 
 apply and their derivatives like bi, bi*, tri@, etc. should be used. The 
 listener prints the stack effect of each command at the bottom, so if you 
 forget which one is which, you can type them in and see. In this case the 
 program becomes  
 { 1 2 3 }  [ ] [ length ] bi  v/n
 .

Re: [Factor-talk] Learning Factor - string, array and io handling - beginner

2012-03-14 Thread John Benediktsson
 I am unsure how to check for an empty string and skip it if it is empty.
 empty?
 
 I have been unsuccessful in getting it to write to a single file in an append 
 mode, or to create a sequence of files as it goest through 'each' 
 'with-directory-files'.
 
 
 
 

/tmp/foo ascii [ hello world print ] with-file-appender 
 The people who have entered the data mixed mm/dd/ with dd/mm/ in the 
 original Excel sheets that I created my CSV sheets from. Of course it is easy 
 to check for numbers  12, but dates like 10/10/2010 are problematic.
 I had to use file-lines vs. filecsv to bring in the data, or else I could 
 not get my regexp working on the CSV from filecsv.
 
 
 
 

The csv vocab makes sequences of strings.  The regexp vocab only works on 
strings.

IN: scratchpad a,b,c stringcsv .
{ { a b c } }


You might want to look into words like find, find-from, or other sequence 
operations if you want regexp like searching or matching.

 Not really an issue, but are there any cominators or other commands that 
 could consolidate all of the 'swap drop swap' commands I have resorted to 
 using. Or 'first second' commands? I wish there was more Factor code out 
 there on the web to learn from...
Well, swap drop swap is nip swap.  But often when you are using stack 
shuffling words, you are not taking advantage of higher level words or 
combinators.  Try reading:

IN: scratchpad combinators help

Also, you might find this blog post I wrote on refactoring a word that has ugly 
stack shuffling to be useful:

http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2010/05/evenly-partition-integer.html
 
 
 
 resource:work/thodw/data [ 
 [ 
 utf8 file-lines
 [ R/ Date|Ticket|\Show Time:\/ re-contains? ] filter
 dup
 0 swap nth stringcsv
 first second 10 cut swap , append
 swap drop swap
 dup
 1 swap nth stringcsv
 first second 5 cut swap , append
 swap drop swap
 2 swap nth stringcsv
 dup
 first second , append swap
 first 4 swap nth
 3append
 append
 print
 #! utf8 csvfile
 ] each
 ] with-directory-files
 
 
 
 


You might find something like this makes it cleaner:

utf8 file-lines
[ regexp ] filter
{ 0 1 2 } swap nths
[ stringcsv ] map

Also, if you are appending and then printing, you can just write the strings as 
they happen, or try looking into the make vocabulary:

[ Hello % CHAR: \s , World % ]  make .
 
Best,
John.

Good points.  Btw, your patch is linux specific for those constants, on OS

#define LC_ALL  0
#define LC_COLLATE  1
#define LC_CTYPE2
#define LC_MONETARY 3
#define LC_NUMERIC  4
#define LC_TIME 5
#define LC_MESSAGES 6
#define _LC_LAST7   /* marks end */

 Only allowing . seems a lot simpler.
 If we use the locale dependant decimal point when we print numbers,
 what should we do when parsing numbers ?
 If the parser also uses the locale decimal point, then source code
 compiles differently depending on the locale.
 If the parser doesn't use the locale decimal point, then numberstring
 stringnumber isnt identity anymore.

 The solution would be to have 2 different words to parse number in
 canonical source code form and numbers in locale dependant form.

 Also, the parser currently hardcodes , as thousands separtor, but
 it's also locale dependant...

Re: [Factor-talk] Would anyone like to review a program by a beginner?

2012-06-18 Thread John Benediktsson
Welcome!


 I would be glad if someone could look at the source and tell me what
 beginner mistakes I made.

 https://github.com/tohava/cpuguard/blob/master/cpuguard.factor


You might find your code looks nicer if you use wrap text at 72-80
character lines, for long words you can put the contents of the word on the
line following its stack effect.  This is a convention that the factor
codebase uses generally.

Some feedback:

1) Since objects that are not f are considered true, you don't need to
use boolean in your numeric? word.

2) In tokens, the code ``[  = not ] filter`` is pretty much the same as
harvest.

3) In the stack effect for if*-empty, you might use true and false
for the quotation names instead of quott and quotf (or perhaps
true-quot, false-quot).

4) Generally, the factor convention prefers dashes to underscores (e.g.,
pid-file instead of pid_file).

5) In limits_with_pids, you can use sift instead of ``[ ] filter``.

6) Sometimes there are simpler stack shuffling you can do, instead of this:

[ arr1 ] [ arr2 ] bi pick swap [ nth ] 2bi@

You might try this:

[ arr1 over ] [ arr2 ] bi [ nth ] 2bi@

Or even this:

[ arr1 nth ] [ arr2 nth ] bi-curry bi

7) You can use the private namespace to keep words that you are only used
by your vocabulary and not anticipated to be used by anyone else.  Surround
the words that are private with PRIVATE  and PRIVATE.  See this for
more information:

http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-word-search-private.html

8) Using fry and some combinators can simplify words, for example:

: update_arr2 ( arr2 pids -- ) [ dup pid_and_total_time swap
stringnumber pick set-nth ] each drop ;

Could become this:

: update-arr2 ( arr2 pids -- )
'[ [ pid-and-total-time ] [ stringnumber ] bi _ set-nth ] each ;

Alternatively, if you keep pids as a sequence of numbers instead of
strings, it's even simpler:

: update-arr2 ( arr2 pids -- )
'[ [ pid-and-total-time ] keep _ set-nth ] each ;


 p.s. where is there info about how to run this program as an
 executable instead of from the factor IDE


You should read through these pages:

http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-tools.deploy.html

If this is the first time you are deploying a vocabulary as a binary, you
can choose deploy options using:

cpuguard deploy-tool

Alternatively, you can just do cpuguard deploy which uses either defaults
or your previously saved deploy settings.

Best,
John.

If you are concerned about performance (suffix makes a new array each

vocabulary which provides some convenience mechanisms for that.  Or look
into collector-for which the produce word uses...

uses the Alt key on Windows/Linux) in the browser.  It would be great to
get this working for the listener as well, and other windows, but its a bit
more work...

You might also find it useful to try the Walker which allows you to step
through Factor code:

 Subject: Re: [Factor-talk] Any way of making sense of what's in the boot
 image?


   P.S. Incidentally, while I am on the subject, I find myself able to
 trace
   through the VM startup code in Visual Studio with no problem at all,
 until I
   get to the factor_vm::c_to_factor, which wraps a c-to-factor
 sub-primitive
   inside of a callback stub and then invokes that function. On both a
 Windows
   7 platform and a Windows Server 2008 platform, my Visual Studio blows
 up
   when the callback address loaded into EDX is called. Anybody ever
   encountered this and any idea how to get around it?
 
  Factor code doesn't follow the C calling convention so it's unlikely
  that a debugger will be able to walk a stack with Factor frames. In
  recent versions of Factor you can trigger Factor's own low-level
  debugger with ^C, which will let you backtrace and step through Factor
  frames.
 
  -Joe
 

 If I'm understanding this correctly, you are suggesting that if I'm in the
 Factor development environment, I can drop into Factor's own low-level
 debugger.  But what do people do (you language maintainer, for example)
 when you need to debug the startup code that builds an image that needs to
 be in place for the development environment even to be launched?  Am I
 correctly understanding you, that I can't use a Windows debugger to step
 through the init sequence, but don't have Factor's debugger available yet
 either?  Or am I missing something?

 Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

  One constructive criticism type comment, if you'll permit me.   While
 what I say directly below is absolutely true, it's true on a micro level.
 At the broader level, the heavy use of (sometimes lengthy) quotations to
 feed workhorse words like define-sub-primitive make understanding what's
 going on quite difficult.  Although I realize the bootstrapping mechanism
 is not a general area of interest to many, I think something on the order
 of about 25 well-placed comments prefacing some of the more extensive
 quotations would help improve readability tremendously, just in case
 someone needs to understand the internals of this mechanism.

 Just a thought, offered in a spirit of complete good will and overall
 general awe at the care and discipline that has gone into this work.

  Thank you, Joe, for the quick response.  It was actually the information
 in the such as clause of your last sentence that I was looking for.  I
 don't mean for you to take the time out to document the meaning of these
 different constants, but if it is documented somewhere other than in the
 creators' heads, I would love to be directed to it.   Not a big deal,
 because I'm sure that when I get to seeing them used in the boot-image
 initialization code, all will become clear.  Still, it might help me better
 understand what's being done at the make-image level to know.

Re: [Factor-talk] Any way of making sense of what's in the boot image?

2012-08-16 Thread John Benediktsson
 that appear occupy two adjacent array slots.  But
 I'm completely mystified as to how the contents of the hash-table got
 mapped to the array slots they now occupy (there doesn't seem to be any
 rhyme or reason).  And I have little insight into the code that
 accomplished this.  Moreover I apparently can't see the 4th slot of the
 original object in the Inspector, as it only shows me three slots on the
 data stack trace, but organizes them alphabetically when I double-click to
 open the Inspector window.

 Don't know if any of this was intelligble.  But maybe one of you compiler
 guys can give me a clue as to how I can understand this.  I'm having to
 reverse engineer my understanding of all of this, so a break in the logical
 chain presents difficulties.
 Sorry for the long post.

 Mike

  1) Factor loads a ~/.factor-rc file every time it starts. You can put
  things there:
 
  USE: tools.scaffold
  scaffold-factor-rc
 
  Click it, edit it and add:
 
  USING: prettyprint.config namespaces ;
  16 number-base set-global
 
 
 
  2) Alternately, there's a boot rc file that gets loaded after bootstrap:
 
  USE: tools.scaffold
  scaffold-factor-boot-rc
 
  Click it, edit it and add:
 
  USING: prettyprint.config namespaces ;
  16 number-base set-global
 
  To load it without bootstrapping, call 'run-bootstrap-init' and then
  'save' your image.

 Is there any place where I can penetrate the meaning of the

 So far I've only encountered rt-here and I've only seen it encoded
 into a
 relocation entry and not really used anywhere yet. But this
 strikes me
 as
 the kind of thing it would be useful to know as I am slogging
 through
 this
 stuff.

 Not a hugely pressing question, as I'm sure I'll muddle through
 it.
 But if
 anyone has a moment to illuminate, it would be nice.
   
Those are relocation record types. When the compiler generates code
for a word, it also needs to generate relocation entries every time
 it
references another word in a jump or call statement, much like a
native C compiler needs to do for symbols in other modules.
The VM uses these relocation entries to update the operands of jump
and call instructions when code is written to the code heap, when
 the
code heap is compacted, or if code is moved in memory for any
 reason.
The different rt-* constants are used to describe what kind of
 object
a relocation refers to, such as a foreign function in a DLL
 (dlsym), a
word entry point (entry-point-*), the current address (here), etc.

Re: [Factor-talk] Any way of making sense of what's in the boot image?

2012-08-16 Thread John Benediktsson
 So then, John, does that mean that in the [ 4 slot { array} declare ],
 that I'm getting the slot named array which is at offset 4 (and then
 declaring that to be an array, so as to disable some of the type safety
 checks)?


Yes, the hashtable code is written at a bit lower level and thus maybe a
little harder to read than one might normally write in Factor since it is
one of the building blocks that everything is built upon.  It is also
possible that some of the compiler optimizations that have been written in
the last couple of years make some of those declarations unnecessary,
although I'd have to look into it more to know for sure.

Also, due to the bootstrapping mechanism, some of the higher level language
constructs like locals and fry quotations are not available yet.  That is
something we hope to fix at some future point.


 Here it says slot takes two incoming values:  an obj and a non-negative
 fixnum, which is the nth slot.   In the hashtable slot-specs you list below
 there are only three slots listed, but it does say that the slot named
 array is at offset 4.   Is it this offset number that is being specified
 by the m parameter?  And thus is the array I am seeing in my original
 description the contents of the array slot of the hashtable that was
 originally on the stack?   That makes sense to me.   And the fact that the
 array is 128 slots long (allowing flattened representation of 64 key-value
 pairs) just means that the underlying array in the hashtable has 64
 buckets.  Is this a correct interpretation.  If it is, it makes sense that
 the actual 26 values stored in the hash table would be dispersed
 throught the 64 buckets, because this is what a hashtable does.


Yes, exactly!  The slot-spec tuple provides a generic description of what
is to be found in this case at offset 4.


Best,
John.

Re: [Factor-talk] Factor 0.95 now available

2012-08-17 Thread John Benediktsson

 The contents of the Factor folder built from git sports the following
 items not appearing in
 the .95 binary Factor folder:

 -files: boot.unix-x86.32.image, factor.image.fresh, GNUmakeile, Nmakefile;


These are:

1) boot image downloaded to create a complete factor image file for your
platform (32-bit unix).
2) copy of the factor.image file to allow reverting if you want to have a
clean environment
3) make file to build on unix platforms
4) make file to build on windows


 -folders: build-support, unmaintained, vm


5) a directory with build it, scotty files for all platforms.
6) a directory with not working but maybe in the future code
7) a directory with C++ code for the VM that produces the ./factor binary



 I don't know if they are necessary, so I'm not gonna touch them while I
 check my .94 project code compatibility.

 Any thoughts on the differences? I'll keep you posted, if anything
 unrecoverable pops up.

 Thanks so much to all for your work. Onward!


Glad it works for you, these files are not released in the binary releases
but all contain or are related to the source build process.

Best!
John.

De nada ;)


 Comforting to know what's up. Any ideas on what prevents the .95 binary
 from launching on my aged machine? First time I've encountered this
 problem.
 I've successfully launched from incremental development releases through
 July.


Likely related to upgrading to Mac OS X 10.8 and XCode 4.4 on the build
farm.  It wasn't intentional, but we're trying to figure out if we can make
XCode 4.4 build against 10.6 SDK or downgrade to a configuration that will
work properly... once we get it working we can make new binaries...

Re: [Factor-talk] Time for some Tutorials

2012-08-20 Thread John Benediktsson
Not bad ideas, we'd welcome any contributions you'd like to make in this
area.  Besides some future, currently unavailable, tutorials, I would
suggest you look at:

* Reading Factor Cookbook (
http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-cookbook.html)
* Creating Your First Program (
http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-first-program.html)

I have quite a few blog posts on my blog that might interest you whether it
be:

* simple RPG game (http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2011/02/simple-rpg.html)
* simple website (http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2010/08/hello-web.html)
* calculator w/ gui (
http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2010/08/calculator-with-gui.html)
* using EBNF (http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2010/07/rolling-dice.html)
* Norvig's spelling (
http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2010/03/how-to-write-spelling-corrector.html)

As well as some optimization tips through:

* powers of 2 (http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2011/04/powers-of-2.html)
* wc -l (http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2011/11/wc-l.html)
* factor-like (
http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2010/05/evenly-partition-integer.html)

In any case, I would recommend picking a project that you are familiar with
or interested in and trying to implement it in Factor.  If you need help,
feel free to reach out to the mailing list or #concatenative IRC channel.

I would also note that the scary list of improvements shouldn't make you as
a beginner more wary, since they don't make the language more complicated.
 In fact, the changes are largely making the language more stable and the
libraries more robust.

Best,
John.

Re: [Factor-talk] Illegal instruction

I'm sorry to hear that, unfortunately it looks like the Mac OS X binaries
unintentionally require 10.8 or greater, due to an upgrade of our build
farm. If you want to use it on 10.6 or 10.7 before we make a fix, you can
build from source:

git clone https://github.com/slavapestov/factor.git  cd factor  \
./build-support/factor.sh update

Re: [Factor-talk] Is there a Factor.js ?

2012-08-23 Thread John Benediktsson
Hi Michael,

I'm enjoying these conversations and your investigations :)

Regarding Javascript, I can see the benefit of a Factor-like language.  It
might be that using Clojure and Clojurescript as an analogy would be a good
one.  Obviously some parts may be harder to get compatible when
bootstrapping from various JS engines, similar to trying to bootstrap from
JVM or CLR.  Language interoperability is a nice concept when you can get
it working well.

Can't wait to here more about your ideas as they develop...

Best,
John.

 Yes.  In fact that is how I'm intending to target the CLR and JVM in my
 own environment -- whether I successfully implement the ability to use
 Factor (the language) inside my platform or not.   I was envisioning
 something like a combination of direct byte code generation (either MSIL or
 JVM byte code) together with whatever programmatic facilities are necessary
 for fixing up metadata tokens, invoking the respective jit compilers and
 the like.  This could just as easily be done from the existing Factor
 environment as any custom environment I manage to construct and in a
 perfect world Factor code created in either environment would compile and
 execute in the other just fine.

 You Factor guru types might be scratching your heads and wondering why on
 earth I would want to reproduce the factor booting mechanism in my own
 environment and build it on top of my own foundations instead of just using
 what Slava has already put so much work into.  The answer is that while I'm
 not sure that this will be necessary (i might be able to get away with the
 DLL-ized version of Factor itself; I'm in major research mode about it as
 we speak), I suspect I may need to roll my own in order to integrate at as
 deep a level as I need with other language facilities I already have in
 place.

 That's as much as I'm going to say about it, because I don't want to
 commandeer the FactorCode.org airwaves to talk about my stuff.  But
 whatever I end up doing, I do expect to give back to the community in the
 way of documentation of what I learn along the way.

Re: [Factor-talk] Modules/packages for Factor

2012-08-24 Thread John Benediktsson
I think there is a danger in proliferation of too many packages with too
many versions here.  One advantage that Factor has had, albeit a mixed
advantage due to reduced resources at times, is one main codebase that can
be improved in wide cross-cutting ways.  That has resulted in a lot of
common vocabulary improvements instead of forks.

We should support packages, and versions, and freezing of requirements for
your application, but lets not lose sight of the benefits we've enjoyed
thus far.

As an aside, the CPAN testing infrastructure is something to be copied.
 Every time someone uploads a new module it goes through various automated
testing on different architectures, and produces a build report back to
you.  That combined with some kind of cross-module lint tool might be able
to yield the strong commons that I appreciate in Factor.

Best,
John.

P.S. Let's not paint ourselves into a dependency hell situation either...

  their dependency interfaces?

 An idea I had was to use test suites to describe dependencies. You
 could say if this package implementation passes this test suite, then
 it fulfills this dependency. Whether it's practical to write detailed
 enough test suites in practice is a good question, but in theory it
 could allow you to express implementation requirements in a more
 flexible way than module signatures or version numbers.

 Hey all,
 
 Mini-update: got the unit tests for the global value numbering pass more
 up-to-snuff awhile ago (it's like test-driven development in reverse!).  Still
 seems like I should be doing more to test the new capabilities, but I'm not
 sure if I could do much more than what's there.
 
 My efforts as of late have been focused on some GVN improvements.  But for the
 past way-too-long, I thought I had broken something catastrophic because
 `load-all test-all` would invariably crash the listener with an out of 
 memory
 error:
 
  Out of memory
 
  Nursery: Start=831c, size=10, end=832c
  Aging: Start=82fc, size=20, end=831c
  Tenured: Start=50c8, size=3214, end=82dc
  Cards:base=b44d0008, size=326800
  Aborted
 
 After a lot of very slow debugging (them's the breaks when running all the 
 unit
 tests, I guess) that was ultimately fruitless, I finally tried out Factor 0.95
 straight from the build farm---none of my changes, no .git, just a clean
 download of the linux-x86-32 tarchive.  And, what do you know, `load-all
 test-all` still crashes with the same error.
 
 It hadn't done that before, so I think the issue may be an intervening OS
 update I did.  I'm running a fully up-to-date Debian testing, kernel
 3.2.0-3-686-pae.
 
 1) Can anyone reproduce this error?  Or is my machine just that jacked up?  
 I'd
 be happy to provide other diagnostic info, if it'd help.
 
 2) Any coping mechanisms?  I considered just throwing a bunch of memory at it
 with command line switches (-young=, -aging=, -tenured=, etc.), but wasn't
 really sure how much would do the trick, since it just started crashing like
 this out of the blue anyway.

Re: [Factor-talk] Literate Programming

2012-08-29 Thread John Benediktsson
I just pushed a vocab with some ideas that might help you get started:

USE: literate

LITERATE

This is a section that is mostly text... you can even include factor stuff
that doesn't get parsed like the following:

: does-this-work? ( -- x ) no it doesn't! ;

But, then if you want to run some code, you can do this:

 : this-totally-works! ( -- x ) 12345 ;

And then some more text, for fun...

LITERATE

Try it and you'll see that the first definition is ignored, but the second
is parsed:

IN: scratchpad \ does-this-work? see
No word named “does-this-work?” found in current vocabulary search path

IN: scratchpad \ this-totally-works! see
: this-totally-works! ( -- x ) 12345 ;

Is something like this what you're looking for?

Re: [Factor-talk] Comments on 'Your First Program

2012-08-31 Thread John Benediktsson
Hi Mike,

Great input, thanks!  A few questions -


 'Writing some logic in your first program'
 After it says 'Place this definition at the end of your source file.' I
 suggest adding: 'Note that a space is significant in Factor.'


What exactly are you trying to communicate with this -- that we require
spaces to tokenize?  Multiple spaces are treated the same as a single
space, indentation doesn't matter (although tabs are disallowed as blank
characters).


 Where it says: 'Enter dup in the listener's input area, and press C+h.'
 This didn't work, so I wondered what C+h actually meant. I have never seen
 Ctrl and Alt shortened to C and A before.  It turned out that I had to
 highlight dup, so I suggest replace the sentence by:

 'Enter dup in the listener's input area, highlight it, then press Ctrl+h.'


You can also position your cursor on or immediately after the word you want
to Ctrl+h.

Best,
John.

I can confirm that it speeds up some benchmarks!

But also that it has math.simd failures:

 Latest working* code was at https://github.com/ajvondrak/factor/tree/gvn

 *I haven't pushed any of the stuff I was experimenting on when I started
 having
 problems with `load-all test-all`.  But before those issues, I gave up on
 figuring out why math.vectors.simd tests (specifically around the
 check-vector-ops tests) were causing memory protection faults with GVN
 enabled
 (they don't with it disabled), hoping that getting gvn-tests.factor up to
 date
 would resolve issues.  But, I got gvn-tests.factor working without needing
 any
 changes to the GVN pass itself, so I reckon the math.vectors.simd tests
 will
 still fail.  Hopefully one of you knows more about how to go around
 debugging
 those tests than I do?  (If you can reproduce, anyway.)

 As for the code itself, I started by copying over
 basis/compiler/cfg/value-numbering/ to extra/compiler/cfg/gvn/ and
 changing it
 there.  It was easier during development to not touch an existing compiler
 pass, lest the whole listener break.

 The diff between the gvn  value-numbering stuff is actually pretty small.
  But
 since they're different files, it might be a bit of a pain to figure some
 stuff
 out (to make sure you like it or whatever).  I've found myself doing a lot
 of
 `git diff --no-index` and `git merge-file basis/stuff /dev/null/
 extra/stuff`
 to resolve discrepancies.  Pretty sure I took care of the few changes made
 to
 the value-numbering vocab while I was working on gvn:

 https://github.com/ajvondrak/factor/commit/beff2088132d992c983ddebe5860183f01bc8b5e

 Otherwise, it should be a drop-in replacement of value-numbering: just
 change
 references to compiler.cfg.value-numbering into compiler.cfg.gvn in
 math.simd.vectors.intrinsics and compiler.cfg.optimizer.

 Extra things I can think of:
   - I needed to make a minor change to compiler.cfg.copy-prop due to the
 GVN
 changes, so that'll be in there.
   - The reason I wrote the graphviz vocab was to facilitate the fun stuff
 in

 https://github.com/ajvondrak/factor/blob/gvn/extra/compiler/cfg/graphviz
 and

 https://github.com/ajvondrak/factor/tree/gvn/extra/compiler/cfg/gvn/testing
 so I could include CFG diagrams in my thesis.
   - Just last night, I tried out a fresh 0.95 download's `load-all
 test-all`
 (in ./factor -run=listener) on my x86_64, up-to-date Arch install (same
 hardware as before).  Still crashed, but instead of getting out of
 memory
 I got a memory protection fault from the gc.  I hope to be improving
 the
 GVN pass some once I can get these errors figured out.  :-/  I notice
 there's been an issue opened about load-all test-all running out of
 memory
 (https://github.com/slavapestov/factor/issues/633); don't know if
 that's in

Re: [Factor-talk] GUI examples

2012-09-25 Thread John Benediktsson
You might find these two posts useful:

http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2010/08/calculator-with-gui.html

http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2011/04/mail-with-gui.html

In particular, the second one embeds a text editor gadget (in my case for
writing emails, but in your case perhaps for editing a text file).

If you have specific questions or examples you are looking for, let us
know.

Also, if you are interested in how certain layout contains work, it is
sometimes useful to see how they are used in the listener UI.

Best,
John.

 I'm also interested in the model idea - presumably to simplify coding.

 I've found the graphics demos, but am more interested in layouts, events

Re: [Factor-talk] glitch in smtp/mail/ui, redux

2012-09-28 Thread John Benediktsson
Hi cw,

Thanks for the report!  I'm glad you got it working, sorry that it was a
bit bugged (we changed prepend to make the type of the first argument and
this apparently broke).  I just committed a fix for it, making
plain-auth-string return a string, instead of a byte-array.

Let me know if you run into any other problems!

Best,
John.

 Greetings, Factoristas - (Slimmed-down revision of earlier bloated post)


 Found a small bug in smtp.factor, and suggest a fix.


 I ran into a glitch trying out the mail-ui vocab, from the recent Re:
 Factor blog (mrjbq7-re-factor-ac166fe).

 I did note the necessity of setting up SMTP to use gmail, though I
 couldn't get that to happen via

 .factor-boot-rc. Instead, I just added the set-up code to mail-ui.factor,
 to be called from the

 top-level word, open-compose-window:

 --

 USING: smtp namespaces io.sockets ;


 : setup-smtp ( -- )

 cwalsto...@gmail.com mail-password plain-auth smtp-auth set-global


 smtp.gmail.com 587 inet smtp-server set-global


 t smtp-tls? set-global ;

 ---

 ~So far, so good.  The 'compose' window comes up and accepts text just
 fine.

 But clicking the 'send' button throws this error:


 Generic word aux does not define a method for the byte-array class.

  Dispatching on object: B{ 65 85 84 72 32 80 76 65 73 78 32 65 71 78 51
 ~36 more~ }


 ~Error occurs where the slot accessor aux  fails on the base64 auth
 byte-array, looking for

 a string instead. So, I made a small change to the send-auth method of
 plain-auth in smtp.factor

 to output a string rather than a byte-array and succeeded in a soliloquy
 with my gmail account:

 ---

 M: plain-auth send-auth

 [ username ] [ password ] bi

 plain-auth-string

 !AUTH PLAIN  prepend command get-ok  ---*CHANGED TO*:

* AUTH PLAIN   prepend-as*  command get-ok ;

 ---

 ~Now I've got mail!


 Cheers,

 ~cw

Re: [Factor-talk] Quick Question For Chris Double

2012-09-30 Thread John Benediktsson

 Given these caveats, here’s an introductory list of topics (in no
 particular order) I would propose to cover.   Any feedback on suitability
 and valuable additions/deletions would be greatly appreciated:

 Defining by combination in Factor and effective use of Higher Order
 Functions

 Partial parameterization and Currying
 Effective use of Pattern matching
 Effective alternation (if/else, switch, etc.)
 Iteration in Factor
 Induction and Recursion
 Lists, Tuples, Records and Arrays in Factor
 Effective use of named stack parameters and local variables
 Overloading – effective use of Factor’s Generics
 List and array comprehensions and lazy sequences in Factor
 Creating and using effective algebraic data structures
 **


I think this would be a nice structure, there are probably bits and pieces
of these sections in the Factor documentation (for example, the Factor
cookbook http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-cookbook.html or The
languagehttp://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-handbook-language-reference.html
 articles).



 Sorry about the long post.  It seemed potentially worthwhile, however.


I agree!

Re: [Factor-talk] regexp words on string slices

Hi Leon,

I seem to have missed this message, sorry for not noticing it earlier!

Have you resolved this problem?  If you watch memory usage, do you see the
Factor process growing?  When it dies, does it produce any output in the
terminal?  What version of Factor are you using?

Thanks,

 The project is about a simulator for arrayForth. There is a grid
 representing 144 processors. I show information about every processor
 in this grid.

 In one of my simulations the program runs fine until I am at about
 100,000 iterations. Then Factor just goes away. The program stops
 always at about the same point, but not exactly.

 When I log things the program keeps working fine.

 I am thinking of a memory leak, but have not been able to find it yet.

 How can I find this bug? Any suggestion is very welcome!

Joe Groff has some blogs about it, one of the first is here:

 appear to work the same way.

 My questions are the following:

 1. Which vocabulary should I use? I'm guessing I should use the OpenGl
 vocabulary in combinaison with the game vocabulary for things such as the
 main loop. Is that right?

 2. Are there any tutorial about game programming in Factor? / Where shall
 I start?

 Thanks in advance,

Re: [Factor-talk] Factor listener windows do not respond on mouse button click. Left.

2012-12-08 Thread John Benediktsson
Very strange, have not heard of this before.  Would you open a Github issue and 
maybe we can triage there?

Re: [Factor-talk] Namespaces in Factor

2012-12-12 Thread John Benediktsson
Typically, you would need to specify which word you mean:

Given:

IN: vocab-a
: foo ( -- x ) 12 ;

IN: vocab-b
: foo ( -- x ) 14 ;

IN: vocab-c
: bar ( -- x ) foo ;

This would happen:

IN: scratchpad USE: vocab-c
Loading resource:work/vocab-c/vocab-c.factor
Loading resource:work/vocab-a/vocab-a.factor
Loading resource:work/vocab-b/vocab-b.factor
1: USE: vocab-c
   ^
resource:work/vocab-c/vocab-c.factor

6: : bar ( -- x ) foo ;
 ^
More than one vocabulary defines a word named “foo”

The following restarts are available:

:1  Use the vocab-a vocabulary
:2  Use the vocab-b vocabulary
:3  Load resource:work/vocab-c/vocab-c.factor again


You can fix this by adding something like:

FROM: vocab-a = foo ;

Or using QUALIFIED: or QUALIFIED-WITH: to fix the ambiguity.

Best,
John.

Re: [Factor-talk] editors

2012-12-17 Thread John Benediktsson
Factor source code is loaded from files, which can be edited in VI or your
favorite editor.  And linked via the edit word so you can open code into
your editor.

In this article:
http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-first-program-start.html, you
create your palindrome.factor file using our scaffold tool (you can also
create it manually, this just makes the tutorial easier):

resource:work palindrome scaffold-vocab


If you just typed the code into the listener, you probably got this error
message:

Vocabulary does not exist (name palindrome)

That means that the vocabulary was either never created, or doesn't exist
on the file system, I think.

Best,
John.

Re: [Factor-talk] Button stack effect problem

2012-12-18 Thread John Benediktsson
If you use global values, this should work:

SYMBOL: a
1 a set-global
Press [ drop a get-global ... ] border-button gadget.

The problem with set and get, is that the 'set' is using the namespace
of the listener which may (likely not) be the namespace of the quotation
being executed by the quotation.  Namespaces are hierarchical, so you want
to make sure that the value is set in either the current scope or one of
the outer scopes to be accessible.

Does that make sense?

By the way, there are several ways to get your code to work, through
currying as was mentioned previously, namespaces like you are trying now,
or even subclassing a button and storing your value in a slot, e.g:

TUPLE: a-button  button a ;
: a-button ( label quot -- button )
a-button new-button border-button-theme ;
Press [ a ... ] a-button 1 a gadget.

Best,
John.

 I don't know if that's the best the way to do it but it works. Although,
 what I would like to do is to set the value of the symbol a from inside the
 quotation. How can I do that?



 2012/12/17 Samuel Proulx proulxsam...@gmail.com

 I see! Thank you for your help and your explanations!


 2012/12/17 Jon Harper jon.harpe...@gmail.com

 The quotation you pass to the border-button constructor gets called by
 the system when the button is pressed. At this time, the stack has nothing
 to do with the stack shown in the listener. So you don't have the reference
 to the label.

 To have a reference to the label when the quotation is called, you
 should make a closure. This can be done with curry (or, in this case, the
 more appropriate with):

 Test label dup gadget.
 Press [ drop Worked text drop ] with border-button gadget.

 Other ways of creating closures are fried quotations (
 http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-fry.html) or local variables
 (http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-locals.html)

 Cheers,
 Jon

 Hi,

 Yet another problem... Hopefully the last though.

 I tried to make a button that changes the text slot of a previously
 made label. Here's what I did:

 Test label dup gadget.
 Press [ drop Worked text ] border-button gadget.

 I got an error message saying Data stack underflow when I clicked it.
 So I checked the quotation stack effect:

 [ drop Worked text ] infer.
 ( x x -- x )

 It should take the button, drop it since I don't need it, take the
 label, and then change its text to Worked. It doesn't do it though. What
 did I do wrong?

 Thanks in advance,

2012-12-19 Thread John Benediktsson
The scroller uses a viewport slot to hold the children gadgets, I believe:

Foo label scroller dup gadget.
dup viewport Bar label 1vector children drop

 It worked fine with borders, so I thought it would be the same with
 scrollers. I tried the same thing you proposed me for the borders with the
 scrollers. It doesn't work. What do I do if I want to change the gadget
 slot of a scroller ( \ scroller help ) ?

 I see! Thank you guys!

 If you inspect the border on the stack you will notice, that the slot
 you are trying to change is actually called children, which is a vector
 that contains the label.

 So this would work:

 Test label { 5 5 } border dup gadget.
 Worked label 1vector children

  Hi,
 
  I tried to change the child of a border. Judging by the help ( \
 border help ), I only need to change the child slot. So I tried this:
 
  Test label { 5 5 } border dup gadget.
  Worked label child
 
  Error : Generic word child does not define a method for the border
 class.
 
  What does that mean? What did I do wrong?
 
  Thanks in advance,
  Samuel
