First thanks for this wonderful bit of code. I must admit I'm a tad lost when it comes to how the builtin files get into the image, I see you concating all the paths to the various .fs files and then including them with #include "BUILTIN-FILES.S". I am unsure by what means their contents end up assembled into the kernel / as theri dictionary entries are just of the form BUILTIN_WORD_NAME(__core_fs, "@core.fs") which suggests to me they exist as a word __core_fs in the dictionary, but what that word does or how the whole file gets into the image is beyond me.

I'm more of a nasm kind of guy and not the best at it or reading gas and not realizing if I'm missing a directive or something. So any sort of elucidation would be greatly appreciated.

Unused is written : unused dp-base @ dp - ;
Then I see dp-base in essence pushes the address of:

dictionary_start:

.long 0

onto the stack and then fetches it, i never see a value set at that location, unless I am missing something.

Shouldn't unused be written a bit more like:

: unused dp-limit dp - ; which would give us the upper limit of the dictionary - where we are now ?

Hi,

first thank you for this wonderful forth variant!
I really like it.

I have some questions, and I must admit, that I am a forth beginner.

I would like to modify keyboard.fs for my german keyboard, but I am really unsure how.
Some important characters like @ or \ are only reachable with ALT-key on a german keyboard.
keyboard.fs unfortunately seems only to map a unshifted and a shifted keymap,
at least thats how I understand the code for now. Perhaps you could help me
a bit what to modify?

And the second question is perhaps a bit ridiculous, I don't know how to start the editor that
you build! I don't find a word to execute for it.

Third and last question (I hope), how to use the in-built assembler. Does it follow a particular
forth assembler standard? I would be very interested, how I could take a value from the stack,
and do some assembler things like MOVing, and how to put a value from assembler back on the forth stack.

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi!

How do I run the sokoban game? When I just type sokoban it says ERROR: Unknown word.

I also tried using eulex first to get the extra words. Same error.
