<magnus--> not *too* long
|
|
<magnus--> but we'd need to longjmp the main thread from the exception handler thread
|
|
<magnus--> or cause a signal in the main thread

<erg> if write returns -1 and errno == EINTR then it's not a real error, you can try again
|
|
|
|
- make head? tail? more efficient with slices
|
|
- fix ceiling
|
|
- single-stepper and variable access: wrong namespace?
|
|
- investigate if COPYING_GEN needs a fix
|
|
- faster layout
|
|
- keep alive
|
|
- sleep word
|
|
- fix fixnum<< overflow on PowerPC
|
|
- fix i/o on generic x86/ppc unix
|
|
- alien primitives need a more general input type
|
|
- 2map slow with lists
|
|
- nappend: instead of using push, enlarge the sequence with set-length
|
|
then add set the elements with set-nth
|
|
- faster sequence operations
|
|
- generic some? all? memq? fiber?
|
|
- index and index* are very slow with lists
|
|
- code walker & exceptions
|
|
- if two tasks write to a unix stream, the buffer can overflow
|
|
- rename prettyprint* to pprint, prettyprint to pp
|
|
- reader syntax for arrays, byte arrays, displaced aliens
|
|
- dipping seq-2nmap, seq-2each
|
|
- array sort
|
|
- images saved from plugin do not work
|
|
- generic skip
|
|
- inference needs to be more robust with heavily recursive code
|
|
- investigate orphans
|
|
|
|
+ plugin:
|
|
|
|
- word preview for parsing words
|
|
- plugin: supportsBackspace
|
|
- if external factor is down, don't add tons of random shit to the
|
|
dictionary
|
|
|
|
+ ui:
|
|
|
|
- tiled window manager
|
|
- faster repaint
|
|
- console with presentations
|
|
- ui browser
|
|
- auto-updating inspector, mirrors abstraction
|
|
- mouse enter onto overlapping with interior, but not child, gadget
|
|
- rollovers broken in inspector
|
|
- menu dragging
|
|
- fix up the min thumb size hack
|
|
- frame gap
|
|
|
|
+ ffi:
|
|
|
|
- smarter out parameter handling
|
|
- clarify powerpc passing of value struct parameters
|
|
- box/unbox_signed/unsigned_8
|
|
- ffi unicode strings: null char security hole
|
|
- utf16 string boxing
|
|
- value type structs
|
|
- bitfields in C structs
|
|
- setting struct members that are not *
|
|
|
|
+ compiler:
|
|
|
|
- simplifier:
|
|
- kill replace after a peek
|
|
- merge inc-d's across VOPs that don't touch the stack
|
|
- [ EAX 0 ] --> [ EAX ]
|
|
- intrinsic char-slot set-char-slot integer-slot set-integer-slot
|
|
- [ [ dup call ] dup call ] infer hangs
|
|
- more accurate types for various words
|
|
- declarations
|
|
- type inference fails with some assembler words;
|
|
displaced, register and other predicates need to inherit from list
|
|
not cons, and need stronger branch partial eval
|
|
- optimize away arithmetic dispatch
|
|
- the invalid recursion form case needs to be fixed, for inlines too
|
|
- #jump-f #jump-f-label
|
|
- re-introduce #target-label => #target optimization
|
|
|
|
+ sequences
|
|
|
|
- specialized arrays
|
|
- list map, subset: not tail recursive
|
|
- phase out sbuf-append
|
|
|
|
+ kernel:
|
|
|
|
- delegating generic words with a non-standard picker
|
|
- powerpc has weird callstack residue
|
|
- instances: do not use make-list
|
|
- unions containing tuples do not work properly
|
|
- method doc strings
|
|
- clean up metaclasses
|
|
- vectors: ensure its ok with bignum indices
|
|
- code gc
|
|
- doc comments of generics
|
|
- M: object should not inhibit delegation
|
|
- renumber types appopriately
|
|
|
|
+ i/o:
|
|
|
|
- faster stream-copy
|
|
- reading and writing byte arrays
|
|
- merge unix and win32 io where appropriate
|
|
- unix io: handle \n\r and \n\0
|
|
- separate words for writing characters and strings
|
|
- perhaps:
|
|
GENERIC: set-style ( style stream -- )
|
|
GENERIC: stream-write
|
|
GENERIC: stream-write-char
|
|
- stream server can hang because of exception handler limitations
|
|
- better i/o scheduler
|
|
- unify unparse and prettyprint
|
|
- utf16, utf8 encoding
|
|
|
|
+ nice to have libraries:
|
|
|
|
- regexps
|
|
- XML
|
|
- real Unicode support (strings are already 16 bits and can be extended
|
|
to 21 if the need arises, but we need full character classification
|
|
predicates, comparison, case conversion, sorting...)
|
|
- full Win32 binding
|
|
- Cairo binding
