  • A Brief Introduction to DurexForth for the Commodore 64
    1 project | dev.to | 9 Jan 2023
    An actively developed version of Forth for the Commodore 64, based on the Forth 2012 core standard.
  • Including files in durexForth (C64)
    1 project | /r/Forth | 19 May 2022
    Just the durexForth manual from github. It's possible I missed something searching through it, but the example programs they have in the repo do have examples of word definitions starting on the first line of the file. Additionally, simply adding a comment to my own code didn't make a difference.
  • Are there any things in math you wish you could rename?
    1 project | /r/math | 6 May 2022
    For the interested, there is a modern open source C64 Forth called DurexForth.
  • C64 Dungeoncrawler - Mockup
    1 project | /r/c64 | 18 Nov 2021
    I know you said you wrote this in Kick Assembler, but I really feel like I should plug 64tass a fantastic cross-assembler. I've used it for my own reverse engineering projects. You might also want to look into DurexForth not because I think you should write this in Forth instead of ASM, but because it might help you to think about how to write things like a quest interpreter.

  • What the hell is Forth? (2019)
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 13 Jan 2023
    I didn't really understand forth till I tried implementing eforth in c.

    https://github.com/tehologist/forthkit

    Managed to write a compiler/interpreter that could understand enough forth to implement the entire system. Less than 500 lines and only uses stdio.h and compiles using TCC

    https://bellard.org/tcc/

    That was so much fun I built a second one in under 300 lines of javascript for experimenting with canvas api in web browser. Single file doesn't require a server, you can drag and drop code onto text window.

    https://github.com/tehologist/ecma6-forth

    Runs standalone, I want to get back to it again.
