Thanks :) Unfortunately I probably didn't include that option when I paid my service and I cannot seem to locate a place where I could add DNS management service. But I hope it doesn't bother anyone how it is setup at the moment (redirecting to different url, that is). I will probably someday

While we're on the subject, does anyone know a cheap hosting site that allows you to run custom executables? I use dreamhost and haven't asked them to host factor yet, but remember trying to use Ruby in the early days and it took them a while to get going. On Sun, Mar 28, 2010 at 4:20 AM, Henrik

Hello all, I was quite impressed with Slava's Google Tech talk so I wanted to learn it a bit. And since I noticed that there's missing some kind of basic environment for beginners, I decided to create one. I've done enough so that people can start using it, at least give feedback. Still, there's

Henrik, I think that's an awesome start. I really like the inclusion of the canvas words. One suggestion: I always picture the stack starting at the left and growing to the right. I think Factor encourages this in a lot of places, like word definitions and, well, in reading code itself;

Hi Henrik, Man this is so awesome! A suggestion: did you have a look at the fjsc vocab? I don't know whether it's functional but it's in extra, so there may be some hope. But you seem to take stack effect declarations for normal words, : square ( n -- n*n ) dup * ; 3 square fails with unknown

Very nice tool. I have a couple of students standing here fascinated. I particularly like the vertical visual representation of the stack. In fact I think it is crucial. A stack is after all a stack and not some other structure. On Sat, Mar 27, 2010 at 1:36 PM, Jesse Rusak
