X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list Reply-To: zettel@acm.org List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 24 Dec 2005 19:14:37 -0000 This undoubtedly is of no importance whatsoever, natheless this inquiring mind would like to know. The FreeBSD boot loader is written in Forth, which I happen to be able to read (sort of, anyway). EXCEPT the word "include" occurs in a number of places. I grant it is fair to middling obvious what it does. At the same time, I have not been able to find a definition for include in any of the reference materials I have on Forth. It is defninetly NOT ANS (or ISO) Forth (which specifies the words INCLUDE-FILE and INCLUDED). So 1) Can anybody give a stack picture for include ? 2) What version/dialect of Forth does FreeBSD use and is there any place I can get documentation on it? thanks in advance, -LenZ-
