Is there any resource for learning how to implement Forth? It would be really cool to have a book that showed you how to determine your machine's capabilities and gave example of how you could implement it from scratch starting on Windows, Mac, Linux and onto other systems like Raspberry Pi, TI calculators and than how it is implemented on more esoteric systems like satellites.
- Avshalom 11y agoit doesn't go into specifically exploiting your machine but the infamous Jones Forth is ~1000 lines of assembly and ~a billion lines of comment explaining the assembly and this gets you into a functioning Forth, then it starts writing everything else in forth, including IF, WHILE, DO UNTIL... which shows how you can use the parsing words to write new language features. https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/08/07/jonesforth-git-repository/ https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/08/07/jonesforth-git-reposit...
