17:34:20 <Keymaker> anything interesting going on? :)
17:36:27 <mtve> the befunge inventor joined this channel recently.
17:37:45 <Keymaker> something about program that would convert
17:38:51 <lindi-> "anything to anything" converter would be nice.
17:39:27 <Keymaker> but was someone working or did that kind of program?
17:41:47 <mtve> calamari is working on it

22:30:32 <number17> where's the inspiration gone ?
22:31:06 <number17> where's spiritus movens fizzie ?
22:31:25 <number17> aha, and irony is only tool you have left.
22:31:47 <fizzie> This unit is almost asleep, I wouldn't expect any brilliant comments.
22:32:29 <number17> i don't sleep. i just logged into this internet relay chat. :D
22:32:48 <number17> i don't care about the sleepy preferences of this unit.
22:34:15 <fizzie> Not much, but non-sleeping manifests itself as aching eyes and other symptoms.
22:35:01 <number17> in that case your organic system must revive its functioning.
22:35:30 <number17> let those cells consolidate. :D
22:36:30 <fizzie> Gah. I hope there's not important-stuff-to-do left for today.
22:37:43 <number17> nothing to do with practical algorhytms, ergonomy, intuition even.
22:39:08 <number17> but in your case, it represents tasks to be done and tasks to be avoided and be sorry for system/career disobeyence on predatory alghorytm. :)
22:39:41 <number17> perhaps you can try to avoid patterns fizzie. :)
22:43:17 <number17> talking to genobyte's ATR HIP CAM-Brain is more entertaining than talking to you fizzie.
22:43:29 <number17> probably because you are tired.

19:10:16 <lindi-> ZeroOne: well, would be interesting if you could patent a whole paradigm
19:13:45 <ZeroOne> but beesod's guess, 100, was probably quite ok. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_esoteric_programming_languages lists ~160 languages
19:13:56 <ZeroOne> some of those exist only as jokes
19:14:15 <ZeroOne> and from some it is really hard to find a reference elsewhere

18:03:07 <Keymaker> anyways; anyone ever wondered what is the digital root of pi's 1000 first decimals?
18:03:39 <Keymaker> that calculates the digital root of given number :)
18:03:42 <Keymaker> http://info1.info.tampere.fi/~lhetuhe/brainfunk/b/digitalr.b
18:04:13 <Keymaker> it is not the final version yet, but works quite fast and bug-free
18:05:19 <Keymaker> and here is are the 1000 14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620899862803482534211706798214808651328230664709384460955058223172535940812848111745028410270193852110555964462294895493038196442881097566593344612847564823378678316527120190914564856692346034861045432664821339360726024914127372458700660631558817488152092096282925409171536436789259036001133053054882046652138414695194151160943305727036575959195309
18:05:58 <fizzie> 512 is the maximum command length in IRC.
18:06:30 <Keymaker> that is the reason, well, make your own test numbers :)
18:06:54 <fizzie> So the maximum _comment_ length in here would be 510-strlen("PRIVMSG #esoteric :") approximately.
18:09:39 <fizzie> I would like to know if pi itself is k-normal for any k. (Digits of pi in base k uniformly distributed, informally said.)
18:10:13 <Keymaker> sorry, i can't understand :\ what means k-normal?
18:10:37 <fizzie> "An irrational number for which any finite pattern of numbers occurs with the expected limiting frequency in the expansion in a given base (or all bases)."
18:11:02 <fizzie> 'normal number' in mathworld. Seems to be rather hard to prove normality.
18:16:18 <fizzie> I be falling asleep on my keyboard here. Irrationally tired. Feh.

01:42:48 <heatsink> I hope by the time it gets to Aaaaargh!, it's in python.
01:58:35 <cpressey> i would've though perl would be perfectly apropos for a language called "Argh!"
02:00:02 <heatsink> But the name comes from a Monty Python movie

08:18:35 <nooga> which languages do you like?
08:19:00 <calamari_> bf is my favorite esoteric language
08:19:22 <calamari_> non-eso, I like microsoft quickbasic and java
08:20:39 <calamari_> I've never gotten into befunge, even though I made my own 2-D eso language.. the instruction set doesn't seem to match the 2-D very well
08:21:03 <calamari_> (my eso lang included in that statement)
08:22:00 <calamari_> there was an interesting thread on the lang list a while back about trying to come up with a 2D instruction pointer.. dunno if it got anywhere tho

08:23:24 <calamari-> I've always wanted to make a fractal programming language, in honor of startrek.. but haven't done it because I can't think of a way to do the code in a way that would fit
08:23:58 <mtve> befunge suits my taste exactly. it's just fine for me. bf is too limited. still, we're waiting your c2bf :)
08:25:17 <calamari-> hehe.. man.. too many unfinished projects
08:25:36 <calamari-> I should check that out tho since I have some time now over winter break
08:41:11 <nooga> i know only brainfuck
08:41:23 <nooga> but l33t, beatnik are funny
08:41:38 <nooga> alseo 4DL and Befunge look interesting
08:42:37 <nooga> i wrote bf2pas yesterday ;]
08:43:12 <calamari-> now all you need is pas2bf and you'll have me beat
08:43:57 <nooga> today i plan to make it portable
08:46:45 <calamari-> someday I'd also like a BF-based OS
08:48:35 <nooga> i thought abt. making bf shell for mine ;]
08:49:47 <nooga> or maybe leet based comands hehe ;] >> "s#0w m3 7h1$ fu<k1ng d1r <0nT3N7!"
08:49:49 <calamari-> since there are bfi programs it should be possible to make it "multitask"
08:50:21 <calamari-> but maybe multitasking isn't really in the spirit of bf
08:50:36 <nooga> hey... or maybe 4DL ? :)
08:50:48 <calamari-> I don't know that one.. is it new?
08:51:19 <nooga> http://www.cliff.biffle.org/esoterica/4dl.html
08:56:18 <nooga> heh when i saw Beatnik for the first time i was shocked '
08:58:51 <calamari-> hmm.. just had an idea. bf could be made so that it doesn't use memory.. instead it could read bytes off the disk. this still fits with the whole tape idea and now programs can be loaded from disk
08:59:38 <nooga> my interpreter does not load source to the mem... it reads straight from file
08:59:49 <nooga> and jumps usikg fseek()
09:00:06 <calamari-> there would be no concept of a file unless it was coded into bf
09:00:56 <calamari-> it would be more like a huge memory array that just happened to not be empty when the program started
09:01:31 <nooga> funny... http://regedit.risp.pl/nosense
09:01:40 <calamari-> the first version would need to be floppy based for increased pain
09:02:35 <nooga> almost every eso language is evul ;D
09:05:48 <nooga> hehe nosense seems to be good for experiments
09:08:49 <nooga> what do you think calamari-?
09:09:46 <calamari-> it seems cool, but I find it easier to test my asm code in a dos window most of the time
09:10:42 <nooga> you have disks there, they are raw so you can even try to define own filesystem
09:11:45 <nooga> and it has some retro style graphics modes
09:12:03 <calamari-> I think the asm code part of this bf os would be pretty simple actually.. I'd need just enough to r/w floppy sectors (bios), screen i/o (bios), and the interpreter, already written many times
09:12:20 <calamari-> the hard part would be the bf program
09:13:13 <calamari-> nah.. floppy doesn't need anything that complicated. In fact, the whole os could probably fit in the space of the bootloader
09:14:17 <nooga> dunno... im a n00b
09:15:03 <calamari-> I've messed around with bootloaders and simplistic fake OS's too many times :)
09:15:56 <nooga> and i still dont know how to make my kernel bootable ;]
09:15:56 -!- puzzlet has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)).
09:16:15 <nooga> i think it's the linker
09:17:00 <nooga> i have somethink wrong with the format of kernel
09:17:12 <nooga> i tried to use elf32 instead of coff
09:17:32 <nooga> but grub tells me that the kernel is wrong ;|
09:17:36 <calamari-> well the first sector on a floppy is the boot sector.. there are a few "magic" bytes you put at the end of the sector (512 bytes) and it's bootable
09:17:55 <calamari-> it's been a while but I think it's AA55
09:18:27 <calamari-> yeah aa55 which turns into 55AA on the disk
09:20:24 <calamari-> I've never messed with linux like that
09:20:45 <calamari-> and also havenb't ever experimenented on HD's
09:20:53 <nooga> can you write os under windows?
09:21:20 <nooga> how to link program to make a bootable kernel?
09:23:54 <calamari-> there were a few projects where I wanted the floppy to be readable under dos/win, so I added a small fat and root directory.. I just used a hex editor for those and wrote a small program to put the sectors together
09:24:05 <calamari-> I usually just write the sectors to a floppy with debug
09:24:27 <calamari-> although it's not hard to do it with asm either
09:24:33 <nooga> but simple exe can't boot?
09:25:36 <calamari-> this is like a com file where you only have a little over 400 bytes of code space
09:26:13 <calamari-> you don't have access to ms-dos interrupts
09:27:17 <calamari-> usually this code space is used to load a larger program from disk and run it (what's why it's called the boot sector, lifting yourself up by the bootstraps and all that)
09:27:20 <nooga> i write program that will prind "Hello world!" on a screen
09:27:36 <nooga> and if i want to run it under win i need to link it for lin
09:28:43 <calamari-> sorry.. I've been talking about coding directly in ASM
09:28:48 <nooga> and if i will link it for win i'll get .exe file
09:29:43 <calamari-> you can link ASM programs to libraries, but you don't have to either
09:30:18 <nooga> and if i want to boot the same hello-world program
09:30:27 <nooga> what i have to do?
09:30:48 <calamari-> I use nasm (used to use tasm), buth can assemble straight to a COM file without any external linking. NASM can assemble to a BIN file which doesn't assume an offset of 0100h
09:31:42 <calamari-> I dunno.. I guess you'd have to write some small code that handles the MZ format and code segment/data segment stuff
09:32:19 <calamari-> you'd also need to handle any MS-DOS interrupts that the libraries used
09:32:42 <calamari-> probably not going to happen in 400 bytes
09:33:14 <calamari-> so you'd need to write your own mini-os basically.. some old floppy games did that
09:33:47 <nooga> and if i will code in asm?
09:34:49 <calamari-> you're going to end up writing some asm code anyways because you're going to need that boot sector
09:38:29 <calamari-> I have an old ESO example on my webpage here: http://lilly.csoft.net/~jeffryj/programs/eso/eso-0.01.zip
09:39:11 <calamari-> it has a bunch of asm files, but I think only aq few are actually assembled
09:41:27 <nooga> you wrote that twisted thing ;]
09:41:40 <nooga> i saw that several weeks ago
09:42:03 <calamari-> yeah, long time ago.. looks like feb of 2003
09:42:15 <calamari-> but it seems like it should be older than that
09:42:50 <calamari-> all it does is show a fancy logo then say "system halted" it's nothing special really
09:43:34 <calamari-> we needed a group to brainstorm how the os would look, but the project died pretty quickly
09:45:42 <nooga> but i can use it as a base for mine ;]
09:47:29 <calamari-> email me if you make something boot up.. I'd love to see it! :) jeff@kidsquid.com

13:03:50 <nooga> coding in befunge is like a game ;]
13:07:59 <fizzie> Especially the size-optimizing part.
13:09:55 <fizzie> You might want to see http://quux.befunge.org/befunge.html
13:10:36 <nooga> javascript interpreter
13:11:50 <fizzie> There's also the "quicksort with pretty colours" thing.
13:58:03 <nooga> maybe im making something bad
13:58:19 <nooga> but this js interpreter doesn't work well
14:05:10 <nooga> ip is moving in a funny way
14:07:10 <nooga> ill write my own interreter
14:07:20 <nooga> it will be much more funny
14:07:21 <fizzie> Hmm, strange. You sure you did the "configuration" part (dragging the boxes like the instructions say) correctly when you loaded the page? It seems to work for me.
14:07:29 <fizzie> Writing interpreters is fun.
14:07:48 <nooga> but when i do te configuration the ip frame is 3x3 pixels
14:08:18 <fizzie> Hmmm. Might be a browser incompatibility then. Works with firefox here.
14:08:40 <fizzie> Usually when I'm learning a new language the first thing I do is to write a befunge interpreter with it.
14:09:23 <fizzie> That's what I did with FORTRAN and Forth. And Haskell.
14:10:37 <nooga> befunge is much more interesting than bf
14:12:49 <nooga> my first program xD
14:14:37 <fizzie> Hmmm.. might be interesting to write a non-deterministic variant of befunge, with an added "fail" instruction that'd backtrack to the last ?.
14:21:51 <fizzie> Not that I'd know many who'd write anything "serious" with befunge.
14:24:24 <nooga> excuse me but i dont understand ;]

12:34:34 <Keymaker> how the lyrics in 99 bottles of beer go? in the very end?
12:36:12 <fizzie> Pick one from www.99-bottles-of-beer.net and run it.
12:36:53 <fizzie> Well, yes. I'm not sure if any of them is "official".
12:36:56 <Keymaker> in some it ends with 0 bottles and in some that there is no more bottles or something..
12:37:42 <Keymaker> yeah. i just tought it'd be nice to know the 'official', i'd like to make on in brainfuck
12:37:52 <Keymaker> yes, it's been made thousands of times but still..
12:38:55 <fizzie> Some googling suggests that it ends either 'no more bottles of beer on the wall' or 'no bottles of beer on the wall'.
12:39:19 <Keymaker> hmmm, i think i'll use 'no more'
12:39:52 <fizzie> It sounds better, I think.

12:43:58 <Keymaker> there as interesting talk about bf-os in some log
12:48:46 <nooga_> im waiting for calamari
12:50:36 <nooga_> befunge os would be much more funny
12:51:40 <nooga_> boot from diskette, screen dividet to 3 parts
12:52:04 <nooga_> code space, output window and stack listener :)
12:52:50 <fizzie> Mooz was thinking of perhaps doing a befunge processor with verilog or some other hardware description language as a course project or something. :p
12:53:23 <fizzie> Not right now, no, but we'll see.
12:54:01 <nooga_> you can go to the electronics shop and buy some transsistors :)
12:54:05 <fizzie> (Oh, and the operating system for our "hey, I'll write an emulator for a (zilog-z80-based) hardware device that doesn't actually exist" thing was supposed to use befunge in the startup scripts.)
12:54:49 <fizzie> Must go locate food, then it's a long (~570km) train-trip back home from this current Christmas-location I'm in. ->
12:55:49 <Keymaker> hmmm, actually finding some food wouldn't be bad idea.
12:57:18 <Keymaker> well, i think i'll go now :) bye
12:57:20 -!- Keymaker has left (?).
13:04:41 <nooga_> my befunge interpreter works different than other
13:17:43 <ZeroOne> Keymaker: I'd enjoy a traing trip of 570 km if I had a laptop. ;) have you got one, fizzie?
13:18:18 <ZeroOne> fizzie: nice. hmm. does it boot Knoppix?
13:18:35 <fizzie> Not sure, but it dualboots OS X and Debian/ppc from the hd.
13:19:28 <fizzie> Has enough battery to last for ~5 hours of irc-over-gprs-over-bluetooth, which is about the time it takes for the train to go Joensuu -> Helsinki, so if I manage the Lieksa-Joensuu interval without irc, I can use it the rest of the trip.
13:23:18 <fizzie> Also, if I calculated correctly, my seats for the Joensuu-Helsinki part are quite close to the "tables" in the middle of the compartment, and those have electricity outlets under them, so I might be able to recharge, too.
13:41:48 <fizzie> Eek, time to go, train doesn't wait. ->
13:55:06 <ZeroOne> nooga_: how does your befunge interpreter work different than others?
13:55:36 <nooga_> because i dont pop from the stack when | or _ are noticed
13:55:56 <nooga_> but i wrote it from my memory and i didnt have a befunge specification
13:58:59 <ZeroOne> I thought it was something more fundamental
13:59:05 <ZeroOne> but then it was just a bug :)
14:00:12 <nooga_> do you have some ideas ?
14:00:37 <ZeroOne> erm, no. I haven't done that much befunge. I wrote a brainfuck interpreter in PHP, though.
14:01:27 <nooga_> bf is cool because you can write interpreter in 3 minutes :)
14:02:20 <ZeroOne> lindi-, who is not here right now, made a befunge interpreter that creates a linked list of the instructions and then abandons the grid. :)
14:03:29 <ZeroOne> that's something I'd call fundamentally different.
14:05:58 -!- kpreid has joined.
14:06:50 <nooga_> im thinking about own eso lang
14:07:10 <nooga_> but im polluted with befunge and brainfuck
14:10:52 -!- lindi- has joined.
14:11:29 <nooga_> it would be funny to build electronic brainfuck
14:12:12 <ZeroOne> nooga_: a fungeoid with a variable size instruction pointer would be fun
14:12:19 <ZeroOne> like, in befunge it is fixed to being 1x1
14:12:32 <ZeroOne> but 2x2 or 3x1 instructions could also be possible
14:12:52 <nooga_> that wold be paifull :)
14:13:07 <lindi-> you mean variable length instruction pointer or variable length instructions?
14:13:23 <ZeroOne> lindi-: hmm. maybe both. ;)
14:13:53 <ZeroOne> but I thought about variable length instructions.
14:14:49 <ZeroOne> it might need some instructions to work with wildcards
14:15:27 <nooga_> i will make brainfuck processor
14:15:37 <ZeroOne> hasn't that already been done?
14:16:12 <ZeroOne> http://www.clifford.at/bfcpu/bfcpu.html
14:16:25 <ZeroOne> and another: http://martin.egy.nu/index.php?page=bfcomp
14:17:18 <ZeroOne> yet another: http://robos.org/bfcomp/index.html
14:18:14 <nooga_> then mine will be yet yet another :P
14:20:20 <nooga_> there are using ready programmable devices
14:20:36 <nooga_> i plan to make one from the simpliest transsistors -.-
14:25:18 <ZeroOne> that will take, like, quite a few transistor...
14:26:05 <nooga_> but its enough masochistic task to complete it
14:27:28 <ZeroOne> I'd say something like 300 transistors
14:28:45 <lindi-> hmm, i might just try that CW6670 one
14:30:19 <lindi-> it's just that XILINX tools are all windows-only
14:30:37 <ZeroOne> you have to build your own XILINX tool first :)
14:32:25 <lindi-> ZeroOne: afaik it's not trivial at all. i'd need to know everything from voltage levels to internal timing issues of the chip
14:33:18 <ZeroOne> well, you can also choose to write a windows emulator with which you can run those existing tools ;)
14:38:18 <ZeroOne> if there aren't any GNU emulators that you could use
14:39:10 <ZeroOne> I guess WINE is open source

21:17:48 <ZeroOne> nooga: I think that has already been done several times. do Unlambda, Lazy K and Iota and Jot say anything to you?
21:18:48 <mtve> the area of esoteric languages is quite good explored already. it's hard it invent something interesting.
21:19:05 <ZeroOne> nooga: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unlambda
21:22:29 <ZeroOne> well, you can make an easier functional language then
21:53:53 <lament> nooga: there're several basic concepts that you have to learn
21:53:57 <lament> before trying to create something "new"
21:54:20 <lament> basically, look at Brainfuck, Befunge, Lazy K
21:54:32 <lament> Wired or whatever i mean
21:54:53 <lament> lambda calculus in general
21:54:57 <lament> turing machines of course
21:55:27 <lament> then just try to come up with something that's like neither one of those :)
22:01:02 <nooga> 5{--} = +++++ in brainfuck; 2{5{--}.} = +++++.+++++.
22:05:38 <lament> anything with a brainfuck-like memory model is likely to be useless
22:05:43 <lament> i.e. not original enough
22:11:17 <nooga> nah... stupid again
22:16:37 <ZeroOne> hmm, I found a new esoteric programming language: Nietzsche: http://www.autistici.org/bakunin/
22:21:19 <ZeroOne> reminds me of that another one, whatsitsname...
22:22:27 <ZeroOne> http://lilly.csoft.net/~jeffryj/compilers/numberix/numberix.html
22:22:35 <nooga> befunge-like language but diagonal
22:23:39 <lament> oh, Game of Life is another one of those basic concepts
22:32:02 <ZeroOne> nooga: Conway's Game of Life
22:32:41 <ZeroOne> isn't that a familiar concept to you? fizzie said earlier that a befunge interpreter is often the first thing he does with a new language. Game of Life is mine. :)

18:53:27 <Keymaker> hmmm, i'll check what the user name is -- in case its some stupid then i won't
18:54:05 <lindi-> Keymaker: er, sane people use things like iki.fi as forwarders
18:54:06 <ZeroOne> that shouldn't matter either. you can always create a redirect address that hides the actual address.
18:54:27 <ZeroOne> like www.keymakersbrainfuck.tk or keymakerbf.cjb.net or something like that
18:54:58 <ZeroOne> and the registeration is not instant
18:55:00 <lindi-> it will be around in 2010 too
18:55:30 <ZeroOne> I believe mbnet is around in 2010 too.
18:55:40 <lindi-> mbnet is not free either
18:56:00 <Keymaker> i think i'll just spend that 20e sometime to get that domain -- i've planned to buy some bf place anyways
18:56:31 <Keymaker> or not necessarily entirely for brainfuck, but for some esoteric programming language projects
18:56:44 <lindi-> ZeroOne: also iki.fi costs are O(1) while mbnet is O(n)
18:58:42 <ZeroOne> lindi-: you mean you get an eternal iki account for paying only once? how much?
18:58:43 <lindi-> Keymaker: i have things like homepna here too, it's a miracle everything seems to more or less work
18:58:53 <lindi-> ZeroOne: currently it's "pay once"
18:59:15 <lindi-> it will change if they can't afford the system without
18:59:32 <lindi-> but currently they have enough money to run it till 2015 or something even if nobody pays
19:00:33 <lindi-> and it's non-profit organisation so they don't just start to ask for more money ;)
19:00:35 <ZeroOne> lindi-: that's quite a lot if actually the only thing you get is a redirect address for your email and homepage :P
19:01:02 <lindi-> it's a headache to change email addresses
19:02:16 <ZeroOne> just for the fun of it, I just reserved the address http://brainfuck.tk/ :)
19:02:25 <lindi-> but i must admit that i avoided iki.fi for a long time because i thought it'd cost too much
19:04:44 <ZeroOne> I'm hooked to mbnet because of the homepage space and the email address
19:05:03 <lindi-> my little sister had that problem too
19:05:15 <lindi-> it took two years for her to migrate to iki.fi address
19:05:20 <ZeroOne> the homepage space is namely 50 MB but in fact there are no limits ;o
19:05:39 <lindi-> i have my 'homepage' on a friends box with gigabytes of space ;)
19:05:41 <ZeroOne> lindi-: darn. I just thought it would take me one year.
19:06:09 <Keymaker> congrats, btw; your bf interpreter executed the bf quine perfectly (7122 instructions)
19:06:14 <ZeroOne> how many forwarding addresses do you get with iki anyway?
19:06:24 <ZeroOne> Keymaker: haha, thanks. :)
19:06:37 <lindi-> ZeroOne: it was just something along the lines of "whoops, i forgot to inform person X and service Y about my new address, can't cancel mikrobitti yet"
19:07:06 <lindi-> firstname.lastname and then nickname
19:07:33 <ZeroOne> lindi-: I know... another email address I had timed out and now there are a couple of services I can't access anymore because I don't remember their passwords and cannot regain the address where they could send it ;G
19:08:13 <lindi-> that almost happened to me with verkkokauppa.com
19:09:57 <lindi-> ZeroOne: http://www.iki.fi/iki/statistics.html is rather interesting btw, it's not exponential

17:03:26 <calamari_> I'm not sure how well my original idea will work
17:05:04 <calamari_> essentially what is needed is a bf where there is memory access to the code space
17:05:42 <nooga> see you next time ;/
17:05:57 <calamari_> otherwise, loading new programs becomes impossible. a side effect is self-modifying code

20:31:34 <calamari_> adding instructions to bf seems to be looked down upon

18:50:31 * calamari_ needs to implement some kind of caching on this thing.. reading a sector at a time really slows things down
19:27:22 <cpressey> i haven't done anything with esolangs in a looong while.
19:28:02 <cpressey> yeah, i saw... bf OS, huh? very cool :)
19:29:04 <calamari_> I thought I had an idea on how to make it work, but I'm not so sure anymore, so it's just a bootable bf interpreter at this point
19:32:49 <cpressey> i've been pondering ideas for how to get esolangs to talk to the outside world, which is something an eso OS would need.
19:33:52 <cpressey> the only thing most esolangs have in common is the standard input/output, so i was thinking, some kind of escape sequence through it would be the best way.
19:34:06 <cpressey> for example, output control-E, then a couple of bytes
19:34:34 <calamari_> it's very similar in concept to adding addtional instructions
19:35:42 <cpressey> yeah. one problem is that there is really no good way for a program to 'detect' whether it's runing under this system or not. but otherwise, i can't think of a better way. adding instructions to the language is ugly IMHO, and it doesn't really apply cross-linguistically, so there'd be no consistency for an e.g. befunge or malbolge OS
19:38:06 <calamari_> a lot of old dos tsr's had an "installation check"
19:38:36 <calamari_> you called an interrupt and if there was sopmething installed you got back a certain pattern in the registers
19:39:46 <calamari_> it's not nice to midify memory tho.. so I see what you mean
19:40:10 <cpressey> right. but if the only way to communicate back to the program is through standard input, the "installation check" in this case has to read from standard input. and if it's not running under the eso system, well, it waits for a key :) which isn't pretty, but i suppose it works alright
19:41:05 <cpressey> the other problem is that output of arbitrary binary data might trigger the 'escape codes' accidentally
19:41:31 <cpressey> but otoh, these are esolangs, so we don't have to look at these as problems per se, they can be 'fun features'!
19:41:46 <calamari_> that's why it might be a good idea to make the escape code 00h
19:42:31 <calamari_> of course 00h 00h would output 00h
19:42:54 <calamari_> but it nseems easier (at least from a BF perspective)
19:43:40 <calamari_> I think we got this far with ESO.. but nobody came up with a decent API :)
19:43:52 <calamari_> I worked on a few, but none were any good
19:44:16 <cpressey> i was meaning to, but it's a big project and i never found the time.
19:44:47 <cpressey> i did do some work on a program that would intercept and translate another program's I/O, but it's only partly done and only works on unix
19:44:55 <calamari_> if it were designed well, the same api could be used for all sorts of stuff like GUI applications, etc
19:46:43 <calamari_> if there isn't a master plan and things are just tacked on, it will add to the esoteric factor
19:47:47 <calamari_> I have about 140 bytes left in my boot sector to play with, so my API will be small.. but that's okay
19:49:12 <cpressey> right, i didn't consider that what you meant by "bootable bf interpreter" must have been bf-in-the-bootblock :)
19:49:44 <calamari_> I've made "real" boot sectors that load kernels, etc.. but it seemed cooler if I could fit everything in one sector
19:50:05 <cpressey> the nice thing about escape sequences is that as long as there's an unassigned code somewhere they can be extended
19:50:33 <cpressey> so, yeah. this could be fun, i might turn my attention to it again if i can find the time...
19:50:34 <calamari_> I have a fat and root directory with a PROGRAM.B that can be overwritten
19:51:38 <calamari_> afk.. need to get some chores done
20:31:30 <calamari_> hmm.. I think my original idea can work
20:31:54 <calamari_> just have an installation check where it returns a value
20:32:25 <calamari_> for example 00h 008h (because then you get the printed backspace as a bonus)
20:32:50 <calamari_> if it changes to 00h, then the api is installed
20:34:46 <calamari_> here is a proof-of-concept code block:
20:34:49 <calamari_> +>.++++++++.[++++++[>++>+++++>++++++++>+++++++>+<<<<<-]>>-.>+++.----.<

21:08:02 <mtve> calamari: wouldn't it be better to add some kind of syncronization? i mean Type/Lenght/Value approach are more extendable.
21:16:21 <calamari_> mtve: ? not sure what you're referring to
21:16:59 <mtve> EsoAPI. there is an escape code 00h (header), type byte.
21:17:27 <mtve> there could probably be a value part. but no lenght, so there will be some hairy protocol,
21:17:49 <mtve> with exceptions, special cases, hard to evolve and so on.
21:18:43 <calamari_> I don't follow you I guess.. are you having trouble understanding how to issue api commands?
21:19:15 <mtve> nope, for now api is very clean and simple.
21:19:58 <calamari_> are you wanting a two character escape code?
21:20:10 <calamari_> where the second char tells how long the escape is?
21:20:16 <mtve> but in case one day you will think about adding new features, it will become more complicated.
21:20:51 <mtve> so it will be versions, (in)compatibility and so on. that's what i mean :)
21:22:20 <mtve> there can be utf8-like approach. 00 00 - 00 7F codes are for one-byte commands, 00 80 xx - 00 BF xx are for 12-bits commands, and so on.
21:22:51 <mtve> i just want to say we could think about it now.
21:23:31 <mtve> sorry, bad math, 14-bits commands.
21:26:16 <calamari_> well, check this out.. 00 05 is free, so use that if you like, 00 05 02 xx xx can be a two byte command
21:26:57 <calamari_> I'm hoping that there will be different versions
21:27:48 <mtve> oh, it's better to be only one API and i think everyone here would like to see _you_ as the keeper/commander for it :)
21:28:11 <calamari_> its GPL, so everyone is commander ;)
21:29:14 <calamari_> unfortunately, bos is maxed out, I think I have about 16 bytes free, not enough to add any more to the api 1.0
21:29:40 <calamari_> I think I gave it enough to write an os using bf commands, though
