s/FORTH re: stack

[sjack]

In the 90's I knew where the web was headed so enjoyed while
able with plan-B on hold, now on. Good to see gopherspace
is alive and well with geminispace as a bonus. Alert,
just noticed today that google renamed their bart ai to,
ta da, gemini.
For now I'm able to view gopher and gemini (not bart) with
chrome but cannot participate. I'll work it out but not
in any hurry. I'm still able to get decent display of
web content with all js and cookies disabled in chrome.

It is not transfer protocols that count, but content.

Unfortunately, Forth has no content worth mentioning. But perhaps
various AI bots are already networking via it?
Kind regards from SkyNet ;-)

KISS has merit.

(a bold statement to be aired here)

No two entities read the same file.

I am really more concerned about Google's new Gemini AI
than about Gopher and successors.

As I have no influence in its application being a boon or bane,
I'll leave the google gemini ai with you. For now
the (other) gemini portal offers access to 40 years of
plain text data to explore. Found there a bbs with a
sub-space called FORTH. As the Forth of its owner and
moderator is nForth and the sub-space is not called
nForth but FORTH, I take that as an invite for discussion
of anything Forth in general. I also found another sub-space
labeled linux where someone was using tmux to operate
two screens with a Forth running in one and an editor in
the other and the means to send edited source to the
Forth for compilation. I had in recent past spent some time
exchanging data via pipe between my Forth and a running background
shell task so would like to compare it with the use of tmux.
