Amjad emailed me with a link to an Emoticon interpreter written in CoffeeScript, and a demo of it in action.

Thanks to Mike for my first ever genuine code contribution from another person! Mike contacted me out of the blue to send this fantastic calculator implentation.

This chunk of code reads a simple arithmetical operation from the first line, extracts the operator, then uses a series of comparisons to identify it before jumping to the relevant section of the code to execute the instruction.
Inspired by this I wrote the following
30 / 5
}:-> 8-O : :-O 8-> 8-O { }:-O :-> ** read data and construct operator **
=|:-O 3 8-# ** implode operator **
Z:-O 8-> =|:-O 8-@ ** set up new instructions **
8-O Z:-> Z:-> ** copy new instructions back **
:-P
This makes the operator by using the implode operator and then moves it into Z: and executes it. The last bit was really tricky without an insert or join operator! For this reason I added an Insert operator (V) in version 1.4.
