What's What

Neil Bawd 2000-07-11, P 2000-08-26

goody: Software that can be filed into an existing system to provide an interesting or useful function.
tool: Goody used to make goodies.
utility: Tool to do some general function.

The pages in this site are pairs - a text file of type .txt and a text file of type .html. The utility MARKUP in the Source to HTML page has inserted HTML tags in the .txt file to make the .html file.

In a .html page there is a link to its .txt file. This is indicated by TEXT at the beginning of the page.

The links on the home page take you to the .html files. You are expected to read the .html page and download (by "Save as") the plaintext .txt file. Of course, if you want the .html file, you can download it as well.

A .txt file is Forth source. You should be able to interpret/compile it. Any other source files that it requires will be named.

The dialect is that of Forth Programmer's Handbook, Conklin and Rather. Words in common use in the Handbook that are not in Standard Forth but can be defined in Standard Forth are accepted. See FPH Common Usage for potential definitions.

Definitions of other words that were used in more than one page are in Tool Belt.

Files like the present one that have no code still have a .txt file.
