- DESCRIPTION
-
- JForth 1.0 first appeared in October, 1986... the
- current version is V3.1. JForth was developed for the
- Amiga, on the Amiga. It is of the "super forth"-genre,
- representative of the state-of-the-art in Forth compilers.
-
- This is a demo version of the JForth Professional 3.x
- software development system. It includes a complete
- JForth interpreter/compiler which is fully-functional
- but limited in the size of executable code it will
- produce. Also, the demo will NOT create standalone
- programs (the commercial package will). This demo
- version also offers an "Introduction" which can be
- optionally viewed at startup.
-
- The demo interpreter/compiler includes a disassembler,
- assembler, as well as a source-level debugger. While
- the demo package does not provide the JForth "include"
- files (similar to C's ",h" files, JForth calls them
- ".j"), MANY are pre-compiled and accessible in the demo
- program. Similarly, the demo can also call many Amiga
- shared-library functions, as they have been pre-compiled
- for you (the demo package does NOT support adding more...
- the commercial package can call any Amiga library func-,
- tion, even custom libraries).
-
- Additionally, there is a compiled program which
- demonstrates the JForth interface into graphics,
- menus, HAM mode, etc.
-
- There are several source files included, including an
- IFF file viewer, word/line counter and others.
- Additionally, several tutorials are provided for
- users new to Forth and/or JForth.
-
- Also provided is V1.11 of Textra, the user-friendly
- Amiga GUI-based text editor. This is the same editor
- which accompanies the JForth package and can be
- integrated with JForth (even the demo) via ARexx.
- (Later versions of Textra are available and are
- completely backward-compatible with JForth).
-
- Finally, as an example of a JForth standalone,
- graphics-based productivity application, Mike Haas'
- 1993 "LCD Calculator II" is included.
-
