@snacks@netzsphaere.xyz @fiore@brain.worm.pink @kopper@not-brain.d.on-t.work geforth does not use subroutine threaded code, it does actually have a really convoluted interpreter that uses a mix of both direct and indirect threaded code
this is one of the things i dont like about it and why id like to hack around on pforth instead but to be perfectly honest ocaml or sml might be the better choice in the long run

@coolbean@brain.worm.pink @fiore@brain.worm.pink @kopper@not-brain.d.on-t.work yeah, gforth is an abomination, pforths main disadvantage is gonna be that it's slow as balls in exchange for being very hackable and easy to understand. I welcome any exploration into languages that arenct plagued by trying to be like c and lose the weird shit that comes with it's syntax
