* 690 - convention: '$' commands for debugging onlyKartik K. Agaram2015-02-011-4/+4
| | | | | | Swap printing generalized objects using arc's infrastructure to be the $-prefixed debug helper, while the erstwhile $print-key-to-host becomes the primitive print-character to host.
* 624 - no, that's all wrong, scratch 623Kartik K. Agaram2015-01-251-2/+2

* 623 - 'nochange' to guard against race conditionsKartik K. Agaram2015-01-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | I dunno, this may all be a wild goose chase. I haven't been disciplined in tagging in-out arguments in 'read-move' and its helpers. Maybe I should just drop those 'nochange' oargs in 'read' and 'write'. Maybe I should reserve output args only for return values that callers might actually care about, and use more conventional metadata like 'const' or 'unique' or 'inout' on other args.
* 578 - switch to non-polymorphic 'print' functionsKartik K. Agaram2015-01-171-2/+2
| | | | | Also clean up various prints from last few commits. As a convention, for debugging we always print directly to host.
* 574 - printing string literals is a hack; hard-code it in for nowKartik K. Agaram2015-01-161-4/+4

* 571 - screen primitives take an explicit terminalKartik K. Agaram2015-01-151-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will let me swap in a fake in tests. Still hacky, though. I'm sure I'm not managing the parameter right in the chessboard app. And then there's the question of whether it should also appear as an output operand. But it's a start. And using nil to mean 'real' is a reasonable convention. If I ever need to handle multiple screens perhaps we'll have to switch to 1:literal/terminal and 2:literal/terminal, etc. But those are equally easy to guard on.

* 529 - 'sleep' can now wait for a routine to completeKartik K. Agaram2015-01-101-3/+4
|
* 522 - another arg for 'fork'Kartik K. Agaram2015-01-101-2/+2
| | | | Fork syntax is now: fork <function> [global space] [max cycle limit] args*
* 520 - update stale exampleKartik K. Agaram2015-01-101-1/+1
| | | | For new interface to 'sleep' at 511.
* 519 - ooh, use metadata to disambiguate argsKartik K. Agaram2015-01-101-2/+2
|
* 505 - simplify tagged-valueKartik K. Agaram2015-01-051-5/+4
| | | | | | | I could swear there was an issue earlier where tagged-values had to contain pointers for some core function. But I can't find it anymore. Ok, assume we can store primitives in it and pointers only for aggregates (and-records and arrays).
* 497 - strengthen the concept of 'space'Kartik K. Agaram2015-01-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'default-scope' is now 'default-space' 'closure-generator' is now 'next-space-generator' The connection to high-level syntax for closures is now tenuous, so we'll call the 'outer scope' the 'next space'. So, let's try to create a few sentences with all these related ideas: Names map to addresses offset from a default-space when it's provided. Spaces can be strung together. The zeroth variable points to the next space, the one that is accessed when a variable has /space:1. To map a name to an address in the next space, you need to know what function generated that space. A corollary is that the space passed in to a function should always be generated by a single function. Spaces can be used to construct lexical scopes and objects.

* 401 - stop abbreviating opsKartik K. Agaram2014-12-121-3/+3
| | | | | We expect users to come across mu from arbitrary bits of code, so try to make each line as self-contained as possible.
* 399 - fix mu examplesKartik K. Agaram2014-12-081-2/+2
| | | | Thanks Kristis Makris for the bug report.
