For me, programming is about being creative, not following your rules.
I very much agree with this principle.
Not to mention any example is better than no example. Let's not
In order to show how to draw a gadget with a diferent coordinate
system, I guess It would be nice to abstract the pattern into a word,
something like:

Ricardo,
The stack effect of the 'ortho*' combinator we ended up with is:
ortho* ( gadget left right bottom top quot -- )
Six inputs is a alot. For me that's usually a signal to look for another

new tuple.

Hi,
Besides a bug fix, the two patches below provide 'see' fontified output
in the minibuffer (try C-cC-s in a factor buffer) and ElDoc support (try
M-x eldoc-mode in a factor buffer and see what happens when moving
around). Both things need a previous M-x run-factor to start the
listener. I've

Hi Jose,
I'm very impressed with factor.el. I did find a few problems though,
it would make factor.el even nicer to use if they were fixed:
- There should be a command to transmit the current file's
USE:/USING:/IN: forms into the listener. Don't forget about PRIVATE;
that's like USE: my
