I have been noticing the PDP stuff in PD for quite sometime, and so far, all I could figure out is that it is for video processing. The docs that I see make references to it being based on Packet Forth, but am I correct in thinking that PDP itself does not provide a Forth interpreter that can be used in and of itself?
I think that impression is a bit misleading. PDP afaik is not based on PacketForth, rather PF is the "next generation" of PDP, with both a standalone Forth interpreter and a Pd embedding thereof. PDP is still maintained, so there will be bugfixes for changes in Pd and other libraries etc, but I imagine there won't be many new features.
