Assume maintainership.
Changes since version 21:
V27
- Fixed REPOSITION-FILE FILE-SIZE and FILE-POSITION.
They used to use single precision offset. Now use double as specified.
- Delete object directories in Makefile clean.
- Fixed "Issue 4: Filehandle remains locked upon INCLUDE error".
http://code.google.com/p/pforth/issues/detail?id=4&can=1
- Fixed scrambled HISTORY on 64-bit systems. Was using CELL+ but really needed 4 +.
- Fixed floating point input. Now accepts "1E" as 1.0. Was Issue #2.
- Fixed lots of warning and made code compatible with C89 and ANSI. Uses -pedantic.
- Use fseek and ftell on WIN32 instead of fseeko and ftello.
- Makefile is now more standard. Builds in same dir as Makefile. Uses CFLAGS etc.
- Add support for console IO with _WATCOMC_
- Internal CStringToForth and ForthStringToC now take a destination size for safety.
- Run units tests for CStringToForth and ForthStringToC if PF_UNIT_TESTS is defined.
V26 5/20/2010
- 64-bit support for M* UM/MOD etc by Aleksej Saushev. Thanks Aleksej!
V25 5/19/2010
- Added 64-bit CELL support contributed by Aleksej Saushev. Thanks Aleksej!
- Added "-x c" to Makefile CCOPTS to prevent confusion with C++
- Allow space after -d command line option.
- Restore normal tty mode if pForth dictionary loading fails.
V24 2/20/09
- Fixed Posix IO on Mac. ?TERMINAL was always returning true.
- ACCCEPT now emits a space at end of line before output.
- Fixed RESIZE because it was returning the wrong address.
V23 8/4/2008
- Removed -v option from mkdir in build/unix/Makefile. It was not supported on FreeBSD.
Thank you Alexsej Saushev for reporting this.
V23 7/20/2008
- Reorganized for Google Code project.
V22 (unreleased)
- Added command line history and cursor control words.
- Sped up UM* and M* by a factor of 3. Thanks to Steve Green for suggested algorithm.
- Modified ACCEPT so that a line at the end of a file that does NOT have a line
terminator will now be processed.
- Use _getch(), _putch(), and _kbhit() so that KEY, EMIT and ?TERMINAL will work on PC.
- Fixed : foo { -- } 55 ; - Was entering local frame but not exiting. Now prints error.
- Redefined MAKE_ID to protect it from 16 bit ints
- John Providenza says "If you split local variables onto 2 lines, PForth crashes." Fixed. Also allow \
- Fixed float evaluation in EVALUATE in "quit.fth".
- Flush register cache for ffColon and ffSemiColon to prevent stack warnings from ;

PForth is an ANSI style Forth designed to be portable across many
|
|
platforms. The 'P' in pForth stands for "Portable". PForth is based
|
|
on a Forth kernel written in ANSI standard 'C'.
|
|
|
|
PForth has been designed with portability as the primary design goal.
|
|
As a result, pForth avoids any fancy Unix calls. pForth also avoids
|
|
using any clever and original ways of constructing the Forth
|
|
dictionary. It just compiles its kernel from ANSI compatible 'C' code
|
|
then loads ANS compatible Forth code to build the dictionary.
|
|
Very boring but very likely to work on almost any platform.
|
|
|
|
The pForth software code is distributed under MIT licence with parts
|
|
dedicated to the public domain.
