I see your point, but in my experience way more people have heard of Forth than "concatinative language", and of those that have heard of Forth most associate it with stack oriented programming, which is at the heart of Play.
Forth also did serve as the true inspiration for Play, so it makes sense to me to put that front and center.
- dkersten 6y agoSomething like "Forth-inspired concatenative language" might be clearer.
- RodgerTheGreat 6y agoPerhaps you can elaborate, then: With the exception of a whitespace-delimited tokenization rule for the syntax and an implicit parameter stack for composing words, what else about Play would you say is inspired by Forth?
- Skinney 6y agoTo me, that is Forth.
