Has anyone offered to pay for one? I believe, if Gavino first two years spent on learning Forth, and next five years was working on creating his "FireForth" browser - we could expect today something at least usable. Maybe under ForthOS. Well, Gavino prefers chatting about Forth... -- "Yes, this is the bad end you've come to, and two and two is - as it always was..." - began Trurl, but just then the machine made a faint, barely audible croaking noise and said, for the last time: "SEVEN".

Has anyone offered to pay for one? Parts of Firefox (TraceMonkey) are already written in Forth. Instead of telling Gavino that it is a hard job, and needs someone to pay for it, we should rather show him how much of Firefox is already done in Forth. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://bernd-paysan.de/ net2o ID: kQusJzA;7*?t=uy@X}1GWr!+0qqp_Cn176t4(dQ*

Well, Firefox is a hughe amount of bloat. TraceMonkey is a JavaScript just in time compiler. The entire JavaScript engine consists of more than the JIT, and a browser needs far more stuff: HTML parser, CSS parser, DOM tree manipulation, HTML rendering, font rendering, JavaScript parsing, SSL code, a user interface, plugins like Java and Flash (Flash's ActionScript engine is also partly written in Forth)... it is just a huge amount of stuff that grew over time. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://bernd-paysan.de/ net2o ID: kQusJzA;7*?t=uy@X}1GWr!+0qqp_Cn176t4(dQ*

It would take a miracle to get Gavino to progress beyond tweeting.

But for those people who don't ignore him, they should at least be prepared with an answer ;-). -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://bernd-paysan.de/ net2o ID: kQusJzA;7*?t=uy@X}1GWr!+0qqp_Cn176t4(dQ*
