I tried, actually! It didn't work correctly, so I assumed support had been dropped, but instead it seems like it was some other technical issue.


You're right, 1 bit isn't enough.

I originally started out with 8 bits, and using modular arithmetic. with more than 1 bit, the server can differentiate between "next token" and "previous token", and act accordingly.

I realized I didn't need all 8 bits, and wondered how far I could push it. Well, you know what they say about off-by-one errors.

Will be updating the post.
