Has anyone developed a set of generic C bindings that would enable one to use Joy as an embedded language for an already existing application? I'm just...
... Good point. I forgot about that. While on the topic of GC algorithms can anyone suggest a good choice for concatenative languages? I've been experimenting...

Thank you Nick, once more, it worked. I now have a joy that uses less that 1% of my system memory after a rabbit run. The old one needed more than 40%...
The following is more about OCaml than about Joy but as discussion is about gc management it may be interesting here, too. I found the results really...

Looks like some work for me ... : ... I'll have to do this soon, it seems. I might need your help with the symbolic link though. I'll be in touch. [..] ... ...
