Hi Dan,
I am interested in all you have about ST-76. Perhaps I can help ?
I have tried to implement ST-76 based on your paper:
- For the interpreter, I used the code of your paper.
- For the bootstrap and the kernel I was inspired by the ObjVlisp model.
- The primitive are based on the blue book implementation.
- For the compiler, I am trying to follow the way of "Monadic Parser
Combinators".
I am only working a few hour a week on this, and I still need some month
to have
a minimal workable prototype.
Have a nice day.
Alain
