| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | every public declaration in src/lib/std.zc has a comment directly above it, so the language server can show it. comments only; no code changed. the comments now match the bodies: Host.env and Bytes.env report the characters copied (at most n - 1), capture drops output past 256 characters, and Buf.set can raise the length past the current end. adds examples/std_tour.zc, which calls one or two functions from each group, and points the README standard-library section at it.
* | docs: remove temporary notes and fix onboarding driftGravatar zinc 13 days2-0/+184
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | - delete TASKLIST.md and docs/design/handoff.md; the handoff content lives in README.md - move docs/BOOTSTRAP-OWNERSHIP.md to docs/history/ and index it in docs/history/README.md - point ONBOARD.md, docs/BORROW.md and the ticked TODO.md item at the new path - ONBOARD.md section 9 no longer mentions TASKLIST.md - ONBOARD.md section 3 and 4 markers are now `// ...` (line comments lost their colon) verified from a clean build: make clean, make (fixpoint 376903 words), the section 0-7 commands (section 4 after the marker fix), and the rejection suites. make check was started but did not complete (stopped before it finished).
* docs: archive the frozen stage code as one compressed tarballGravatar Moon Flower 13 days377-50279/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | docs/history kept six stages with a full copy of the project under code/, 3.8 mb of sources duplicated from stage to stage and already superseded. store them as docs/history/code-snapshots.tar.gz, 0.66 mb, and extract one in place to read it. every stage's notes.md stays browsable, and the index says where the code went and how to get it back. the top-level README points at the archive too. its other two links into docs/history, 21-micro and 35-bench, were notes that were never kept and do not resolve; the index now records that.
* feat: grow memory limits, add icon/actor libraries, overhaul LSP diagnosticsGravatar Moon Flower 13 days1-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compiler and VM - make every memory map limit dynamic and adjustable at both build time and runtime, including compiler tables, stacks, and every execution region - reserve and grow tables, operand and return stacks, frame segments, and image-building output without relocating live code or globals - rename i/o and string helpers consistently (puts -> put_s, putn -> put_n, scat -> cat_s) across compiler, runtime, examples, tests, and docs - recast and consume values assigned to globals from inside functions - allow fixed and const together, add typed closure returns (fn:t(...)), multi-include syntax (include rt, run, core;), and recurse type inference - never infer string literals as word, anywhere, as argument, variable, or return type - draft docs/BORROW.md: a borrow checker less intrusive than Rust's but more intelligent LSP and editor integration - require explicit includes and give every toolchain area its own namespace (rt, lsp, run, core) - hover for built-in types, inferred types, values known at hover time, array and pointer lifetime/size, library names in include statements, and inferred lifetimes with explanations - honor /* */ comments as documentation for variables and arguments, and stop misattributing section headers or trailing comments as variable hints - stream diagnostics and cancel stale requests on change - jump to definition and references, including cross-file - quick fixes with automatic library import, and namespace completion Hints and diagnostics - render hints as blue squigglies by default, with hints on/small/off per file - suppress magic-number hints via a preceding /* */ comment, and say so - warn on unused arguments; allow multiple _ discards in parameters, pattern matching, and tagged enums, warning if a _ is actually used - rewrite hint and comment prose in professional compiler-doc register Libraries - add icon.zc: run-time self-modification, find/replace syntax, type and block edits, and step-through inspection of locals and globals - add actor.zc: async actors with Actor<I,O>, implicit this, spawn/recv/send, injected into the compiler machinery at include time rather than built in Tooling and docs - reorganize sources, tests, and designs into subdirectories - unify windows entry points in tinyvm.bat and add a matching tinyvm.sh - add --help across the toolchain - polish the learning guide, stdlib docs, and design notes Tests - add accept, reject, and regression coverage across the compiler, LSP, - runtime, icon, actors, threads, formatting, and the toolchain contracts, plus fuzzers and property tests
