colorForth uses color as a part of the syntax. In Forth, a new word is defined by a preceeding colon, words inside a definition are compiled, outside are executed. In colorForth a new word is red, green words are compiled, yellow executed. This use of color further reduces the syntax, or punctuation, needed. It also makes explicit how the computer will interpret each word. http://www.colorforth.com/index.html Example of an IDE disk driver in Colorforth http://www.colorforth.com/ide.html VLSI Design Tools In 500 lines of colorForth these tools provide everything required to design a chip. They are derived from an earlier version called OKAD that successfully generated many versions of Forth microprocessor chips. http://www.colorforth.com/vlsi.html These tools have been used to design the Intellasys SeaForth 24 processor array chip. http://www.intellasys.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=35&Itemid=63 Colorful fun, BobLQ -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-lpsg
