I now need to implement strings, and I am going with a (pointer, length) tuple. which on my machine is 16 bytes. so I figure I should allocate it on the heap and put an 8 byte pointer on the data stack. is this a sane approach? I really have no idea what I am doing. [01:35:56] LACampbell: Why is everything on the stack the same size? Ease of implementation? [01:37:16] FreeFull well my main reference point for designing this has been the Koopman book about real life stack machines. they all mentioned machines with fixed sizes. it never occured to me to do otherwise. is there a better approach? [01:37:52] To be fair, I've never implemented a language like this before, so I'm not the best person to ask [01:38:02] * fuzzyhorns [fuzzyhorns!~fuzzyhorn@c-73-38-57-191.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has quit (Quit: Leaving.).
