A hobby implementation of a FORTH-like system atop the Julia scientific
computing language. It will almost certainly never be useful for any purpose

+besides that which it has already fulfilled: forcing me to think quite
carefully about how forth works.
This package owes a massive debt to the existence of the literate programming
Notice that unlike other forths, forth.jl echos a newline after reading each
line of standard input. This is an unfortunate side-effect of the way that

There's an example Mandelbrot Set drawing program included in the examples
directory. To run it, you'll have to locate this directory on your system (its
location depends on what OS you happen to be using and how julia is installed).

my system I can run the example in this way:
