30 hours	yessssssss	Irene Knapp
	so okay, now all the machine code stuff is implemented and it builds without crashing the generated executable still crashes though, but this was enough work that it's getting a celebratory check-in Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I201e6912253647da58ef3537c735b478b0dca9fb
38 hours	okay there's a strat for making the here/latest variables now	Irene Knapp
	it doesn't work yet, but it's gonna the reason it doesn't work is that the new helper log-load-variable relies on the assembly-definition words being statically available, and they aren't yet that's fine though, this is still a huge change, worth checking in. why? well, it represents like 16 hours of debugging which culminated in some very minor changes to the semantics of the label transform, in order to make missing words easier to notice and debug. see comments for details. woooooo :D Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Id8334819d165ba9e3156ef2bf32008af748eac29
4 days	the skeleton of the log-load transform is in place now	Irene Knapp
	it doesn't actually output anything, but it all runs without crashing Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I48f2e647044df0ae3db961c747cee31a8826ecf3
4 days	ah, oops, there was a bug in the label transform for compiled words	Irene Knapp
	fixed now also a bunch of small things towards adding a log-load transform Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I6eeb94d896a7e79092886d7b60e9404c31b2ba6f
4 days	word labels are now stored as offsets	Irene Knapp
	also, the various address spaces in use are described better, and there's helper functions to convert between them. Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Idb56d2b6299d6e7071c9d42b2eb1138b17b85c69
4 days	it's much closer, most of the labels work correctly now	Irene Knapp
	Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I45662e60c0035758a2cd57d971031eb0562eccb7
4 days	make the label transformation work all the way, no crashing	Irene Knapp
	the code doesn't quite run yet, that'll be a future CL Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I71e6a45127c1fc37906d902e36142c17afef2a21
5 days	document the assumptions between labels and transforms	Irene Knapp
	also some minor cleanup that ie. fixes alignment padding Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ia8fcb9a44e05e37751cc1b8334aa72add7e62353
5 days	fix things up so it gets through cold-start	Irene Knapp
	then it crashes on warm-start because warm-start doesn't exist yet Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I9eba481b31d48f9d32c3790f296204c5c8d90938
5 days	now there's a concept of pushing and popping input sources	Irene Knapp
	Force-Push: yes Change-Id: Ib8e8f342b7fa3773071eca36accf060f6c20f3be
9 days	implement all the core Forth stuff in Evocation-assembly	Irene Knapp
	also, add support for ;asm and stuff Force-Push: yes Change-Id: I904bc0c31e7e4c8b0abc7790f3af5d20c275f2a5
10 days	implement more stuff in interpret.e	Irene Knapp
	it depended on the execution-model stuff, for the "next" macro. in general, any word implemented in assembly will depend on that. so, the execution stuff is moved into its own file, leaving evoke.e with only the job of bringing everything together. that's a little disappointing because talking about the execution model seems like a good introduction to the whole topic, but perhaps the problem can be solved down the line with literate programming...
