Hi David! That's some pretty clean code, I must say! How long have you been developing for Forth? BTW, there was some pretty hefty comment when I implemented some heavy support for "lookup tables" in the Forth community. "We don't need no stinking tables". It was Wil Baden who saw the benefit

I've been using Roman numerals as a step beyond hello programs in learning programming languages. 4tH comes with a sample program by Leo Brodie, but I've come up with the following program that uses 4tH's ," string compiler word to make a nice little routine. I think it's a demonstration of how

Hi Ron, I've never seen a Linux that didn't compile 4tH, so yes, in that way it will be supported. If someone makes a binary, I'm willing to distribute it. Hans Bezemer

Hi David! This is a GREAT tip! I've always got problems to install cross-compilers for all these environments (they're called "cross" compiler for a reason, because that's what they make people) and then still I got to have some kind of (emulated) environment to test the bunch. So each time I

I just checked that I can also build 4tH from 4th-3.62.5-unix.tar.gz on my Android 7.0 smartphone. 1. Install and run the terminal emulator app Termux. 2. Install the Termux packages lynx (or something else for downloading the source tar ball), clang, and make. 3. Customize variables LIBRARIES,

Hi 4tHers! The whole shebang (including example programs) is committed to SVN. With a little trouble you might get it to run on v3.62.5, Hans Bezemer

Android 5 is pretty old. Any chance we might look forward to 4Th running on current (MUCH improved) Android? Semi-unrelated: the new Raspberry Pi 4 is a really impressive machine, only $55 for a 4 GB ram with a great complement of i/o ports. Raspian is well supported LInux based in Debian. Will

I have not done any Android app development, but it seems like a constantly moving target. Would the executables I built be useful to anyone else? Feel free to contact me if you want someone to test the new release on Android.
