3 daysno more than sixteen bytes on a lineIrene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I7cd583d5a3ee72c316633ceb2efbb51a2fe46452
3 daysfresh line for alignment padding commentsIrene Knapp
this fixes the thing where, if alignment padding was zero-length, the comment could wind up on the same line as the preceding thingy, causing confusion Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ie7490370bf66a2f9b82df584236320bd88338e39
3 daysmake the magic-comment tab stops function like real tab stopsIrene Knapp
fun! fiddly! :D fixing one-off column alignment issues is like stimming for coders (which is to say, like stimming) Change-Id: I1037ec27b863f90117fb22a29ef52d0ba460c7d5 Force-Push: yes
3 daysadd a special word for magic-comment tab stopsIrene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I7ba182f5939aa3b5d280fb48673e2cc74d72e8ea
4 daysmagic comments work in the log-load transform nowIrene Knapp
that was pleasingly straightforward Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I92b66fbb37ed5df3ef3f733e8679747a9a232373
4 daysevery byte in the hex output is now attributedIrene Knapp
wow!!!! Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I2b46837b5ff37b4339a9a4ba0ae52903854d5e99
4 daysindent curly-brace blocks in the log-load transform hex outputIrene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I18e04f06390e85d4cd2c113094a137986ca2e54a
5 dayssome basic indentation for parts of the log-load transformIrene Knapp
Change-Id: Ibfd4fa69a3d2abdaba162538f6386f7173af4311 Force-Push: yes
5 dayscodeword annotations and such for the log-load transformIrene Knapp
this is everything outside of log-load-transform-one itself compile time is up to nine minutes though, due to the new backwards-scan thing. keeping the entries sorted might be better... Change-Id: I96058f0c9c043f7b8b681018e1178505caddbc62 Force-Push: yes
5 daysmagic comments for all the high-level flow control in the label transformIrene Knapp
Change-Id: I5430e14e81c5981f358fda43c2f35ed47cafc29b Force-Push: yes
5 daysadd a bunch more data- and entry-manipulation magic-comment commandsIrene Knapp
now it's possible to make ;asm replace "docol codeword" with "self codeword", and it does Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I1a9b4cee8a3eee308cf421968d6a3cd92adba800
5 daysa new "data" concept in magic commentsIrene Knapp
this is meant to handle variable-length stuff. it is now used to handle the string in the word entry headers. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I8f3ce7dd93351639fbce82503324f3efe5def568
5 daysmagic comments for a bunch more small stuffIrene Knapp
especially in the label-transform output there's more to do, but there are additional magic-comment features that would be handy, so we're checking this in now so that those can be cleanly kept in their own CL Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I97a67caddc3f3150c349b7956c1d715db909d1a9
6 daysgive the names of codeword pointers in label-transform outputIrene Knapp
under the hex transform, that is this also implements ndrop in quine, because it wasn't building evoke, and it checks in the updated hex.hex which reflects the more concise notation for integer constants. this brings all the builds into a clean state, for the moment. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I243cf08c70b4a3af00ea5e0836c5596a32f1288b
6 daysbetter behavior in the crash handler when the dictionary is messed upIrene Knapp
a lot more defensive bounds checks Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ib900471b8befe06dfa7994714b94ab4ebdc3f0fa
6 dayshandle memory sliding in the hex transformIrene Knapp
wow!!!! that was big Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I504ae746d4424e46819357e6dad6d6eadec16b81
8 daysyeah okay, copying it wasn't necessaryIrene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I9772f90f497a19c04ff6f9e261a5d9f262f79be7
8 daysfix the overwritten strings in the outputIrene Knapp
this probably shouldn't have required copying them, but ah well, copying worked Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I239f2633c61867f6c42a5b76a0e978aff0875a9d
8 daysredo the hex dump comments for alignment to use the regular magic commandsIrene Knapp
previously, alignment had been a special-cased type of metadata entry, with a special trap on packalign. now it uses the same programmable setup everything else does. much simpler, and prettier output. this CL also contains some modest reformatting of section headers in the hex dump Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I21554e92f6af6ddefa937dad8073b89657f85d64
8 daysadded section headers and other formatting to all the parts of the hex dumpIrene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ie66d85fd171dfb45d1f3b6869bf94056ec8303af
8 daysdo magic comments from the label transform when inside the hex transformIrene Knapp
the meaning of them in that setting is a bit different, which deserves to be documented eventually Change-Id: Ia7725bc776420c0ad62091a2e5100700868a6bfa Force-Push: yes
8 daysoops, didn't mean to comment that outIrene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I8fbf3d531b18904f2a01e6b05ff2822d6a015013
8 daysrefactor hex-tilde-alternate to split out lexingIrene Knapp
note that lexing of the body of a magic comment was already separate, part of hex-tilde-replacement. however, hex-tilde-alternate had been responsible for lexing the sequence that introduces a magic comment. because we want to make separate versions of the alternate for each inner transform, the lexing needed to be factored out. this does result in more copying, but it doesn't appear to noticeably affect runtime. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I51a780d1dadb99f09bddb9eaccb1af387bd0ce87
9 daysavoid repeated scanning of the metadata entries during formattingIrene Knapp
there was a test that had never been working, meaning the entire entry array was being scanned for every byte of output. even had that test worked, it would still have scanned on average half the array for every byte, so that'd be where the absurd runtimes were coming from. anyway, it works now. this gets a full hex transform invocation down from over thirteen minutes to under thirty seconds. learn your data structures and algorithms, kids. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: If075b256f77649fae9d2e56cb7404458ca39d189
9 daysplace a trap inside the hex-transformed nlabel-transform-oneIrene Knapp
this will be used to cause it to apply a tilde alternate, but the lexing code for that needs to be refactored first also, this has an implementation of nexit, a new flow-control word for a scary style of metaprogramming Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ic7fe2d50a8ee21cf9fa5fef1fef4408c2935bb4c
9 daysadd the ability for magic comments to happen in immediate modeIrene Knapp
but, don't do them, though, they aren't ready yet. for reasons described in the code. they're harmless, they don't cause crashes or incorrect output, they just don't cause any output at all. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I5e45adc60f4e01e7bc54d9da8aa4fa5f8b708ddb
11 dayswork on making the label transform pretty-print word entry headersIrene Knapp
this involved instrumenting label-create-alternate and some other stuff it also involved adding provide-string and provide-string-copy magic-comment commands Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I52f87decc02bf6f2516ee009f27c783a2c5bd715
11 daysexplanatory text at the start of the hex transformed label transform codeIrene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I695582905dea0c6e34981e803ef515c547eade40
11 daysswap the order of parameters to hexdump-betweenIrene Knapp
it was confusing from the start, and we had one too many issues with failing to remember it. finally taken care of :) Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I9782621f747e84d50d1794e3f1669cb5afb77038
11 daysfully verify the hex-transformed output of all Evocation-assembly wordsIrene Knapp
the verification included words that aren't used in Evocation itself. it also resulted in fixing several such words that were broken in ways that would have crashed. it was a very thorough verification. do honor to the effort that was put into it by always verifying that changes to amd64.e don't break it, from now on :) Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ia1904f4b35f90772fd9dce79a0274627c547edbf
11 daysremoved the #swap syntaxIrene Knapp
everything has been carefully diffed to ensure there's no regression in the verified parts of the output Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I32c887c7ca8c132a49899d9ef327c8ff9fb782fb
11 dayssemantic change to make subitem stack manip more convenientIrene Knapp
this allows a much cleaner style than the #swap notation, which will likely be removed soon Force-Push: yes Change-Id: If9898334356eb7c036f28afd22d435e00a84f6e2
13 daysrefactor the metadata postprocessing a little for readabilityIrene Knapp
there's about to be a semantic change, but that will happen in a separate CL Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ib32d542c02a640a964fdeed7bc16248b669d6a91
13 daysbegan to check and correct the exact hex-transformed instruction outputIrene Knapp
the checking is only a little way down the file, but there's a new feature needed, so this is being checked in now to protect the work that's already been done Force-Push: yes Change-Id: If8c29d4b417288e5cfb2aa08ce6d41adadc64279
13 dayssubstantial additions to the READMEIrene Knapp
and also a prettier flame drawing Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I5896bfdee53c934b4c38861c8a9e9f5a966f7264
13 daysrename substring entries to subitem entriesIrene Knapp
also the -entry-string field is renamed to -entry-content, since it's an integer a lot of the time much clearer. hopefully. certainly more consistent. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I82315a135422ef2fae5dd3d6e8ea025ccfa97cfd
13 daysadd provide-hex, which varies its output width to fit the valueIrene Knapp
and amd64.e uses it for all the immediates, but not for other kinds of numeric parameter, which looks pretty slick and readable Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ifb630a4dc172d7495b5458316266fe76b75e07af
14 daysadd some magic comment commands to reorder subitems more generallyIrene Knapp
these are all fully working and debugged. they have been used in a principled attempt to get all the parameter orders in amd64.e correct, but that effort needs to be verified carefully, which it hasn't been, yet. a couple of missing magic comments in elf.e and execution.e were also added. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Id4c48b121a71b4f945ee3718e14a06f07afd7304
14 daysstatus update in the README! an important one :)Irene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ia929bd55a0cec2781a4166dad4c7797fd2cb1b9d
14 daysfix all leaks and incorrect parameter counts in amd64.eIrene Knapp
this required adding a new magic-comment command, drop-subitem, because there's a couple cases, in indexed addressing mode helpers, where a hardcoded register value is used as part of preparing an sib word, and that value shouldn't become a subitem for the assembly word that calls the helper. notably, a lot of the disp8 and indexed assembly words had incorrect parameter counts that needed adjusting parameter ORDERS still need a close read to make sure they're correct. also, as future work, substring entries should be renamed to subitem entries. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I419243855751416377d0ea0c5062fa1ba9e62a8d
14 daysdocument how to do a full build of evoke.hexIrene Knapp
the contents of evoke.hex aren't usable quite yet, for reasons now described in the README, but the build itself runs to completion. this is honestly a huge milestone. Force-Push: yes!!!!! Change-Id: Ia95d6aba7485062c0e64cdde0575058a2df2a1ef
14 daysdeal better with return values when underflowing the substring entry stackIrene Knapp
it's now able to run all the way to the end of the label transform, inside the hex transform. the output leaves much to be desired, but it runs. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I7cac39df599e8081fac6b050dfeb34e598bb54eb
14 daysfix broken compile with the flatassembler versionIrene Knapp
oops. that was a good catch, should have been checked more often. hopefully it won't be needed much longer. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I3e2d04118a6f588c410e2439fbbd52aabd173e77
14 daysprovide word entries for "here" etc inside the hex transformIrene Knapp
this replaces the alternates we previously had for those words Change-Id: Ia8c8ca7203e03f511d68a30811fb8a5d262c6312 Force-Push: yes
2026-09-09fix strings under the hex transformIrene Knapp
this is towards being able to run the hex transform on Forth compilations, rather than just assembly compilations like it does right now. it's been verified that it doesn't cause any regressions. the reasoning for why this fix is necessary is complex, but explained fully in comments I have to admit that I'm not totally clear why the unmodified, untransformed string words don't work for this scenario, but they don't, so... Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I93640c7ca965eba5dc28116bda0165ae1c941458
2026-09-09check in the hex binary and commented hex-dumpIrene Knapp
yes, wow, right? big milestone! doesn't work for evoke itself quite yet, but getting really close Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I1e836b85cf185db4aa835d2aa494a67585e60744
2026-09-09add an implicit way to define suffix commentsIrene Knapp
and make the explicit way more versatile (allowing zero length) this required hooking the lexer at a pretty low level, but it worked out fine Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Icdbe233fbf9d4cf07cb8d03975eed3b4f7b620aa
2026-09-09rename the provide-substring-* entry types to push-substring-*Irene Knapp
Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I2d0ed253fc7b0e38f63cb0e6290ac2b1a64e32e8
2026-09-09provide a #swap operation in comment templatesIrene Knapp
and use it in a couple places in amd64.e where it's needed Change-Id: Id73dcd13f08c03aa02ac09e45ab034fcd90f2569 Force-Push: yes
2026-09-08handle the rest of the fields (keywords and numbers) in amd64.eIrene Knapp
add a provide-decimal variant of the magic-comment provide command family note that the fields are all printed in a wrong order, at present Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I01f5cbb86f61e78ce652c54fc8b29b88efd1b2b6
