Slava, I'd like to experiment with redefining call as a generic word that can dispatch on quotations and other kinds of objects such as the closures I wrote about recently. Do I need to bootstrap a new Factor with my complex definition for call in place? Basically, I'd like to be able to pass closures as well as quots to words that currently only accept quots. For example, I'd like to pass a closure tuple to a button.
If this is possible, it would be a neat demonstration of how malleable Factor is. Do you have any advice? In the past I worked on a couple of lispish interpreters in Factor. Being able to express closures in Factor makes translating lisp to Factor even easier. So this is at least one application. ;-) Ed ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
