My Io Someday/Maybe List

A list of tasks I would like to or should do, but I in my head I haven't committed to.

asSimpleString

List

Message

slotSummaryEvalSlotNames

Add slotSummaryEvalSlotNames for all of the C backed types

• Message: arguments, name, nextMessage, attachedMessage, ...
• List: size
• Sequence: size
• Vector: size

Object removeAllSlots

For cleaning off objects. Leaves protos list untouched.

List contains(multiple, args)

      <quag> would it be nice for List contains to check that all of the arguments are contained?
      <quag> list(1,2,3) contains(2,4) => false
      <quag> list(1,2,3) contains(1,2,3) => true
      <quag> list(1,2,3) contains(2,1) => true

Hex escapes inside strings

\xDD where D is a hex digit in strings

printing strings hex escapes unprintables

JS Io Parser

Port the js Io parser to Io

Port the js Io parser to C

vm/_ioCode

Refactor the files. Lots of the Ax_Blah files have heaps of stuff in them.

Hmmm...

Io> a := 10
Io> a(1,2,3)

Should give an error because the args will never be used.

setSlot

Io> message(a := (1, 2))
==> setSlot("a", (1))

Should be an error because the 2 is dropped.

Io> message(1 := (2, 3, 4) 5)
==> setSlot("1", (2) 5)

Math

Math pi; Math e; Math hypot(x, y)

Move resend to call resend.

setSlotWithType

Remove the type := "Foo" lines from vm/_ioCode/*.io now that setSlotWithType is handled by the parser

Check all the bindings for _ioCode which redundantly sets the type field

Flux

Make the slideshow use space/pagedown to move to the next slide and delete/pageup move to the previous slide.

CLI

Use Jon's multiline method instead of the current one. http://folk.uio.no/jkleiser/io/
