I love FORTH, and wrote a good bit of forth software back in the day. The main problem with FORTH is that FORTH developers are writing FORTH instead of programs. I mean, that’s kind of also how writing programs in FORTH works, TBF. The problem is that every program is a DSL, so it’s hard to grep unless you built it. It’s a great personal hacking language though. I often wonder, though, because of the mechanics of context with LLMs, if forth might not be the ideal language for LLMs to write simple tools for their own use? Could we pawn off the “you should try forth” problem onto AI lol?
