Description: Discussion about Forth.
 

State smartness 
  Is there a portable way to do this: ... (U) STATE @ IF POSTPONE LITERAL THEN ; IMMEDIATE without "STATE @" ? U takes a specially formatted number from the input stream.

off topic: Poslin 
  I feel kinda bad for doing this as my first post on comp.lang.forth, especially since my only experience with Forth is writing a limited version of it in the course of working through "Let Over Lambda", but I didn't find any better place. The code of Poslin is written in Common Lisp and can be found at... more »

What other good forth Forums are there? 
  I was wondering what other good Forth forums are out there? I was interested in starting a Forth hardware forum or mailing list for the misc community, but seeing the misbehavior that has grown around here for many years, an alternative forum is needed. It has reached the point that the dishonest perpetuaters have become... more »

OOP and prime sieves 
  Albert van der Horst commented on my parallel FIB posting and said that I should work on a program that actually does something useful: ... Because it is mutually recursive, benchpin is not easy to adapt to processors where communication between nodes is vastly slower than computational speed. Therefore... more »

Another OOP thread; everything on the stack is an object 
  The "current object" thread and my investigations on a prototype based object model for Forth has led me to think that it should be possible to construct a stack based "everything is an object" language. Assume a stack where each entry is an object (possibly implemented as some form of closure pointer), and where every word (including numbers and... more »

Reforth - A forth which fixes problematic aspects of Forth without sacrificing its simplicity. 
  I found this rethink of FORTH and I like what I see, but I would need to try coding with it. [link] Thoughts?

LPC1114 Serial Init translated from c to forth issue 
  Sorry, many don't translate c to forth and many don't do arm and even if you did both this particular ARM chip is unlikely but I have a FORTH that needs to talk! The LPC1114 is from NXP and they have a usb stick eval board and a eclipse development ide supporting c/c++. Their example serial code works, using interrupts. My FORTH needs to talk polled i/o. The serial init routine is what I translated, without the interrupt part, and I added send a char at the end. This doesn't work.... more »

vectors as basic data type 
  Hello, I see a general utility in matrix computations and have therefore gone over to use a fixed vector type as a base for my vm design. Does anyone know if there is a Forth system that implements the same approach (please, I know some APL inspired extensions to ANSI forth. This is not I'm searching for) ?... more »
