What is Stoical? I don’t really understand anything on that page. Could this need be fulfilled by Gforth or Racket?

- mikewarot 5y agoIt's a forth with types, dictionaries, arrays, heaps... it's pretty cool... I managed to get it to to compile on an old 32 bit linux, but I don't know enough C to translate it into modern 64 bit C.
- cpach 5y agoHave you considered installing Alpine or Debian in a 32-bit virtual machine? Using VirtualBox for example. Both Alpine and Debian provide 32-bit images. It might be possible to use Docker as well, but I’m not sure how.
- mikewarot 5y agoI've got a virtual machine with Debian 3 installed... it was the only OS that I could find old enough to deal with the variant of C, and was 32 bit. I'm a Pascal programmer, so it was news to me that there isn't really a standard C, but rather it changed more than once... the old code doesn't work with the new compiler. A few of the macros just will not work because of the way they assign things.
