Well, technically it could be, and I think it has some benefits there,
at least compared to languages like Java and C++, because it's
relatively straightforward to have a mixture of content text and
Forth+web framework program.
But someone would have to write the web framework, and once it's
there, what would be it's selling point? I.e., after being
technically competetive, how would we become competetive in marketing?
Other languages like PHP and Ruby are already well entrenched in this
application area, so technical ability alone is not sufficient. You
would have to find a killer feature that the Forth web framework has
and that the others would find hard to replicate.

It seems to me that the true=all-bits-set variant offers some tiny
advantages over the true=1 variant, but that maybe because we have
worked with it for 30 years and have worked out more idioms (OTOH, we
have true=1 in C, so we should have seen the alternative idioms
there). Probably the most common idiom is stuff like
( flag ) -14 and throw
That could be replaced (at a little cost in performance or compiler
complexity) with
( flag ) -14 * throw
on a 0-or-1 system.
One idiom where true=1 has an advantage is when storing a flag in a
byte. With true=1 we can just use c! and c@, but with true=-1, we
have to use c@ 0<> to get a well-formed flag again.
Another take on your question: I recently sketched the Forth variant
PAF (for Portable Assembly Forth) where standards compliance is not a
primary concern; for that I decided to go for true=1, because that's
what some architectures offer, whereas none (that I know of) offers
true=-1. Here's the whole section on that:
| 3.8 Comparison
|
| The words =? <? u<? f=? f<? etc. compare two stack items and return
| 0 for false and 1 for true. They correspond to the Forth words = <
| u< f= f< etc., with the difference that the Forth words return -1
| (all-bits-set) for true. A number of machines have instructions that
| produce 0 or 1 (MIPS, Alpha, IA-32, AMD64), while for others it is
| as easy to produce 0 or 1 as to produce 0 or -1, so "0 or 1" is more
| in line with the goal of the direct relation to the machine
| feature. An implementation of a 0- or--1 language like Forth would
| use a sequence like <? negate for which good code can be generated
| easily.(5)
|
| (5) Conversely, one might also decide to have < etc. instead of <?
| in PAF, and let the compiler handle the mismatch to some machines,
| but that would be somewhat against the spirit of a portable assembly
| language.
You can read the whole paper on PAF at
<http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/anton/euroforth/ef13/papers/ertl-paf.pdf>
Note that I use the name =? instead of = exactly to avoid the Forth-83
mistake.
> Would you
>have PICK and ROLL or PICK and ROLL and PLUCK and TUMBLE?
I don't see any advantages or disadvantages of Forth-79 PICK and ROLL
over the Forth-83 variant, so the decision could go either way. The
typical use is 2 PICK (or in Forth-79 3 PICK), and I don't see any
advantage of one over the other.
>Would you prefer to write in a better language or a compatible language?
That's a false dichotomy. By choosing non-conflicting names for the
better features, we can use a better language while staying compatible
with legacy programs. That's what the Forth-94 committee did and that
is a very successful approach. That's certainly possible for stuff
like the results of comparisons, and for PICK and ROLL.
For more encompassing features, e.g., type checking, total
compatibility is not possible, but it's still a good idea to avoid
gratuitious incompatibilities. E.g., for specifying nonprintable
characters in literal strings we decided on a C-like syntax, even
though C is otherwise incompatible with Forth; it simply helps to only
have to learn one set of escape codes if you use both Forth and C (or
any of the other languages that adopted these codes from C). Of
course the C-haters here hate it.

As usual, you forget to mention that C has (I repeat it again) full logical
STANDARDIZED operators like && and ||, so it doesn't care what value "true"
has.
Furthermore, what do you think this renders?
#include <stdio.h>
void main (void)
{
printf ("%d\n", 2 == 2);
}
Right: 1.

As usual ... ?
Anton said "true=1" in C. That's simply not true. (pun intended)
> you forget to mention that C has (I repeat it again) full logical
> STANDARDIZED operators like && and ||
This has no bearing on the issue. What I stated above
is true for && and || as well. The INPUTS to && and ||
are false (0) or true (not false). The OUTPUTS are
false (0) or true (1). true (1) is still not false.
> so it doesn't care what value "true"
Exactly, only "false" (zero) is of concern to C.
That is what I stated which you took objection to.

That doesn't prove true in C is one. That only proves
that '==' generates a well qualified flag in C for true,
using 1 for true.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
int i;
for(i=0;i<256;i++)
{
if(i)
printf("true %d\n",i);
else
printf("false %d\n",i);
}
return(0);
}
See, 1, 2, 3, ... etc are all true too.
So, how is "true=1" ... ?

It proves that a well qualified flag in C is 1. And if that is true, the
following must be true as well:
(1==1) | (1==0) => TRUE
(1==1) & (1==1) => TRUE
(1==1) & (1==0) => FALSE
Still, C found it logical to add logical operators. And NOBODY ever said
that conditional flow control in Forth required a well qualified flag. So,
where are you going?

No, I am referring to the results of operators that produce flags
(just like the discussion about Forth refers to words that produce
flags; words that consume flags only distinguish between 0 and non-0),
and they produce 0 or 1.

You object to the use of the same words for differing functionality? I can agree to that, but I would guess people just didn't think of it. Keeping the old words around in a compatibility wordset or (better) preface is better than just mixing the improved features in though. >>Would you prefer to write in a better language or a compatible language? > That's a false dichotomy.

That is my point. And I would hope that when one creates a better language, one avoids anything gratuitious. tristan
