Texinfo (similar to LaTeX) is preferred.  The best would be a "diff
-u" from the file gforth.ds.

If the Forth source files are executable and to be called by the user,
you should put them in $prefix/bin; if you go the shell script route,
put the shell scripts there and the Forth source files elsewhere
($prefix/share/$package/$version might be a good directory).

Take a look at how other packages are done.  Reading the GNU Coding
standards <http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html> may be
helpful, for your case in particular
<http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Managing-Releases>.
