https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D225320 Bug ID: 225320 Summary: New port: lang/RETRO: clean, elegant, and pragmatic dialect of Forth Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: mpp302@gmail.com Created attachment 189910 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D189910&action= =3Dedit A shell archive with the new lang/RETRO port (RETRO, RETRO/Makefile, RETRO/pkg-descr, RETRO/distinfo, RETRO/files, RETRO/files/pkg-message.in) It is a port of an actively developed dialect of Forth called RETRO. The official description from the website[1]: RETRO is a clean, elegant, and pragmatic dialect of Forth. It provides a si= mple alternative for those willing to make a break from legacy systems. The language draws influences from many sources including traditional Forth systems, cmForth, colorForth, Factor, and Parable. It was designed to be ea= sy to grasp and adapt to specific uses. The basic language is very portable. It runs on a tiny virtual machine (Nga= ), which is written in C. There are multiple interface options, the main one (= rre) is buildable with just the standard C compiler and libraries on most systems (tested at various points on Linux, NetBSD, macOS, and Windows, on x86, x86= -64, PPC [emulated], and various ARM processors). [1] https://forthworks.com/retro --- Testing: - `port test /usr/ports/lang/RETRO` does not show any warnings. - `portlint -AC` says that the port looks fine. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
