+ 0.85:
- signal 4 on datastack underflow on mac intel??
- test alien-indirect
- code GC:
- minor GC takes too long now, card mark
+ ui:
- the editor should fill up the interior of the scroller completely
- pane output in UI should use less memory
- variable width word wrap
- needs layout tricks
- add-gadget, model-changed, set-model should compile
- graphical module manager tool
- list of modules -- loaded, not loaded
- each module has a list of files
- files can be reloaded and edited
- modules can be (re)loaded
- keyboard navigation
- editor:
- more efficient multi-line inserts
- write "foo| " and put caret at | then select word element: selects
space
- ui browser: show currently selected vocab & words
- keyboard-navigatable list gadget of some kind
- tuple= in dataflow view
- hide empty command groups in $commands
- ui quick start doc
- auto-update browser and help when sources reload
- how do we refer to command shortcuts in the docs?
- reliably clonable gadgets
- figure out if we need both set-model and set-model*
- if i do 10000 [ . ] each and then clear, the listener window is slow
- full-height nodes should really be full height
- better help result ranking
- page scrolling should be timer-based too
- x11: scroll up/down wiggles caret
- roundoff is still not quite right with tracks
- fix top level window positioning
- x11.app has a problem with A+ keys
- services do not launch if factor not running
- fix ui listener delay
- editor:
- editor should support stream output protocol
- double/triple click
- autoscroll
- undo and redo
- transpose char/word/line
- page up/down
- search and replace
- drag scroll
- slider needs to be modelized
- fonts/ should go inside the .app -- we need multi-tier resource-path
- should be possible to drop an image file on the .app to run it
- support x11's large selections, if needed
- own-selection violates ICCCM
- cocoa: windows are not updated while resizing
- grid slows down with 2000 lines
- ui uses too much cpu time idling
- see if its possible to only repaint dirty regions
- x11 title bars are funny
- rollover is not updated on window focus changes
- x11 input methods
- cocoa:
- horizontal wheel scrolling
- polish OS X menu bar code
- structure editor
- mouse over for input w/ multiple lines looks stupid
+ module system:
- convention for main entry point of a module
- convention for main help article of a module
- track a list of assets loaded from each module's file
- generic 'define ( asset def -- )'
- C types should be words
- TYPEDEF: float { ... } { ... } ; ==> \ float T{ c-type ... } "c-type" swp
- TYPEDEF: float FTFloat ; ==> \ float \ FTFloat "c-type" swp
- make typedef aliasing explicit
- seeing a C struct word should show its def
- file out
+ compiler/ffi:
- more compact relocation info
- problem if major gc happens during relocation
- in fact relocation should not cons at all
- stdcall callbacks
- see if alien calls can be made faster
- compiler tests are not as reliable now because of try-compile usage
- we can just do [ t ] [ \ foo compiled? ] unit-test
- [ [ dup call ] dup call ] infer hangs
- callstack overflow when compiling mutually recursive inline words
- test what is done in the case of an invalid declaration on an inline
recursive
- ppc64 backend
- arm backend
- mac intel: struct returns from objc methods
- fix compiled gc check
- there was a performance hit, investigate
- float boxing and overflow checks need a gc check too
- float= doesn't consider nans equal
- intrinsic fixnum>float float>fixnum
- C functions returning structs by value
- infer which variables are read, written in a quotation
- compiled continuations
- compiled call traces
+ misc:
- fix this:
[ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 11 11 11 113 ] .
[ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 11 11 11 113
]
- prettier printing of hashtable literals, alists, cond, ...
- buffer-ptr should be an alien
- swap nappend ==> nappend
- sometimes darcs get fails with the httpd
- gdb triggers 'mutliple i/o ops on port' error
- factorcode httpd crashed: bad file descriptor
- growable data heap
- incremental GC
- UDP
- slice: if sequence or seq start is changed, abstraction violation
- hashed generic method dispatch
+ httpd:
- help responder has no way to access { "foo" "bar" }
- httpd search tools
- remaining HTML issues need fixing
