@bubobubo ooh Forth! is it available somewhere? i'm curious because it looks a lot like my own ideas for using Forth in live coding, except I also thought about having special bracket tokens / stack values you can use for making array / pattern literals, eg. instead of "c2 c4 2 choose" you could write "[ c2 c4 ] choose", and "{c2 d2}*4" in Strudel's mini-notation might look like "[ c2 d2 ] 4 *"

@sqx I thought about this but I removed the brackets because it felt not very "forth-like" where you are supposed to manipulate the stack directly. I'm not really looking to make something Strudel like because the step sequencer that you can see behind doesn't play nice with it. It's a different model altogether, but I'm still figuring out what I can do to deal with some cases: polyphony, etc.. I will release the software after successfully eating my own dogfood: playing one or two gigs with it :)

@bubobubo cool! the ctrl+s for stack - is it a live debugger or something? i once did an ugly neovim/lsp hack where you could debug your forth-like code (see the stack under the cursor) while typing it (also goto next/prev iteration for loops)
