Forth is more low level, ie. there is no object memory/GC at what one would describe as implementation level. On the other hand all the Lisp Machines essentially are hardware implementations of something vaguely Forth-like with some level of hardware support for lisp-style tagged pointers.
- zentiggr 7y agoA good way to jump over the low level implementation details is to look at Factor. Forth style but much better library and most of the low level constructs are baked in. I can't say the documentation / tutorials that I've found are the best but it's definitely something.
