qiihoskeh* I hope to see my psychiatrist this week.
* I've been playing around constructing a low-end 16-bit instruction set. What the heck, here's a little more on this topic. I started out with a simple stack machine. Then I gradually added some registers with appropriate instructions. Now I'm redoing it without most of the stack machine instruction set. I've still used too many opcode byte values, so I'm trying to see what instructions can be put into 2 opcode bytes. There will be separate code and data space with 64K bytes for each visible at a time. There will be 8 address map values for the user processes and another 8 for the kernal (and maybe a couple more sets for interrupt handlers). The map registers are visible only to the kernal; map changing instructions trap.
* No significant conlanging activity.
* No good news yet, but at least I did morning gongyo today.
This will have to do as my journal entry.
