- Fix HERE corruption: sync user_here before writing to shared cell
- Fix DOES> without CREATE: patch most-recent word, not read new name
- Implement >BODY via word_pfa_map tracking parameter field addresses
- Nested BEGIN...WHILE...WHILE...REPEAT...ELSE...THEN support
- DEPTH overflow protection
- Forth 2012 core.fr: 3 errors remaining (POSTPONE edge case,
double-DOES>, NOP meta-programming)
Major compliance fixes for running Gerry Jackson's core.fr tests:
- >IN synchronization: outer interpreter reads >IN back from WASM memory
after each word, enabling TESTING and other >IN-manipulating words
- RSHIFT changed to logical (unsigned) shift per Forth 2012 spec
- +LOOP uses boundary-crossing termination check for negative steps
- HEX/DECIMAL compile as WASM primitives (work inside definitions)
- BASE read from WASM memory for all number formatting
- Pictured numeric output: <# # #S #> HOLD SIGN
- New words: 2@ 2! .( ] ArithRshift
- Error recovery resets compile state on failure
- FIND reads counted strings from WASM memory
- Forth 2012 core.fr: 58 errors remaining (from unable-to-load)
README now documents all 70+ implemented words, working examples,
architecture overview, and accurate compliance status.
CLAUDE.md updated with actual file descriptions, patterns for adding
new words, and current test count.
- Dictionary: linked-list word headers in simulated linear memory with
create/find/reveal, case-insensitive lookup, IMMEDIATE flag support
- WASM codegen: IR-to-WASM translation via wasm-encoder with full
validation; all stack, arithmetic, comparison, logic, memory, control
flow, and return stack operations; wasmtime execution tests
- Outer interpreter: tokenizer, number parsing (decimal/$hex/#dec/%bin),
interpret/compile dispatch, control structures (IF/ELSE/THEN,
BEGIN/UNTIL, BEGIN/WHILE/REPEAT), RECURSE, comments, string output
- 40+ primitive words registered via JIT-compiled WASM modules linked
to shared memory/globals/table
- Interactive REPL with rustyline, piped input, and file execution
- 145 tests passing across dictionary, codegen, and runtime
Optimizing Forth 2012 compiler targeting WebAssembly with IR-based
compilation pipeline, multi-typed stack inference, subroutine threading,
and JIT/consolidation modes. Rust kernel with ~35 primitives and Forth
standard library for core/core-ext word sets.
