Forth programming language support

Introduction

Ficl (Forth-inspired command language) is an ANS Forth interpreter written in C. Unlike traditional Forths, this interpreter is designed to be embedded into other systems as a command/macro/development prototype language.

Note

Many of the RIOT features are not directly available to forth code, but first need to be exposed to ficl by writing some glue code. See examples in examples/lang_support/community/forth_*.

Typical use

char in[80] = { 0 };
FICL_SYSTEM *pSys = ficlInitSystem(4096);
FICL_VM *pVM = ficlNewVM(pSys);
int ret = ficlEvaluate(pVM, ".ver 2 spaces .( " __DATE__ " ) cr");
 
while (ret != VM_USEREXIT && shell_readline(in, sizeof(in)) >= 0) {
    ret = ficlExec(pVM, in);
}
 
ficlTermSystem(pSys);
