asforth

Forth, written in 900 lines of assembly.

Building

You must have NASM and Make installed, and you must be running an x86_64 Linux machine.

Run make to build asforth, running asforth will work, but you haven't told asforth about any of the stdlib.

For convenience rasforth is provided, to utilize rasforth you must have rlwrap installed.

asforth reads from STDIN, you can define separate files and pipe them into asforth.

Have fun Forthing!

TODO

Allow evaluation and interpretation of files on-the-fly. This would allow for actual file imports rather than having to concatenate every file from the stdlib and feeding it through standard input.

DOES> would be a very nice word to have, figure out how to implement this.

Along with DOES>, EVALUATE would also be extremely nice.
