Just a couple of new things I've stuck on my web pages - the latest otuto
design - http://www.acooke.org/andrew/diary/2004/aug/design.pdf - and a
Win32 only (sorry) screensaver -
http://www.acooke.org/andrew/weak-coffee.exe

Otuto is (will be!) a simple language something like Forth, Joy,
Postscript.  It has two stacks - one for the "program" and another for the
"data" - which are modified according to "rules" (functions, really). 
I've tried to make a language that's very simple, has a reasonable syntax,
and which takes care to be reasonably self-consistent.  I kind-of like it
(although it's depressing how much effort it takes to make something even
half-decent).  Try section 5.1 for a quick idea of what it's like.

The screensaver is just the text from a diary entry I made a few days ago.
