bigFORTH uses a module system. Each module has several anonymous definitions which are executed at startup. Example: ---------------hello.fs---------------------- module hello : hello ." Hello World!" cr ; main: hello bye ; module; savesystem hello ---------------------------------------------- bigforth hello.fs -e bye will generate a 'hello' program which outputs "Hello World!" and terminates.
