Update to FICL 3.03 (the last release before FICL4 rewrite).

The relevant changes for FreeBSD (excerpt from the release note):

* Newly implemented CORE EXT words: CASE, OF, ENDOF, and ENDCASE. Also
added FALLTHROUGH, which works like ENDOF but jumps to the instruction
just after the next OF.
* Bugfix: John-Hopkins locals syntax now accepts | and -- in the comment
(between the first -- and the }.)
* Bugfix: Changed vmGetWord0() to make Purify happier. The resulting
code is no slower, no larger, and slightly more robust.

Upgrade to FICL version 3.02. Anything wrong is my fault, everything right is
due Jon Mini.

Revert rev 1.7 which moved us away from POSIX character classes.
The community feels our base AWK must handle them.


85842 01-Nov-2001 obrien

Substitute "[:space:]" with the character constants it expands to.
This was a silent 'failure' when using Bell-Labs awk.

Bring in ficl 2.05.

This version has a step debugger, which now completely replaces the
old trace feature. Also, we moved all of the FreeBSD-specific MI
code to loader.c, reducing the diff between this and the official
FICL distribution.


68729 14-Nov-2000 obrien

Don't use the Gawkism strftime(). Pass in the date stamp on the awk
command line instead.

Approved by: dcs


61584 12-Jun-2000 dcs

Make abort" functional in interpret mode. This behavior is undefined
by ANS Forth standard, but it's useful.

Also, define the constant true in a more strict way. C might garantee
2-complement math, but Forth doesn't.


61372 07-Jun-2000 dcs

Remove a bug that caused local variables declarations in the format
{ | internal -- } to be rejected.


61177 02-Jun-2000 dcs

Add something that was missing from the original 2.04 distribution.


61149 01-Jun-2000 dcs

Add "int" sized manipulation words.


60962 26-May-2000 dcs

Strip spaces and comments more agressively.


60959 26-May-2000 dcs

Bring in FICL 2.04. No bump of loader version is required by this
commit.


56718 28-Jan-2000 dcs

ANS Forth for logical not is 0=, not invert. Replace wrong usage.


51789 29-Sep-1999 dcs

Fix world-breaking bug, add $FreeBSD$ tag.

This happened to be my first "for real" broken world. I had broken
it once before, but nobody noticed, so it didn't count.

So, how do I get the "I broke world and all I got was the lousy t-shirt"
t-shirt?


51786 29-Sep-1999 dcs

Bring in ficl version 2.03. No version bump for loader.

$Id$ -> $FreeBSD$


44774 15-Mar-1999 dcs

Remove redundant code.


44322 28-Feb-1999 dcs

Make $ print different lines in, well, different lines.


43615 04-Feb-1999 dcs

Make FICL_TRACE default.

Add freebsd.fr, for FreeBSD specific forth source. Add $ and %, to
replace the lost @ and - functionality of include. $ has the opposite
behavior of @ though, since the default behavior was inverted.


43598 04-Feb-1999 dcs

Add conditional compilation facilities to ficl. This had been previously
committed to RELENG_3 instead of HEAD, so let's HEAD catch up.

PR: bin/9662


43078 22-Jan-1999 msmith

Add EXCEPTION word set.

Make TIB handling use buffer size to conform with ANS Forth.

Add ANS MEMORY-ALLOC word set.

See the PRs for extensive details.

Transition from using Perl to using awk for our text-manipulation
needs. This removes the dependancy on Perl for the generation of the
loader, allowing the world to be built on a perl-free system.

Take init out of here - it's a layering violation.


40976 06-Nov-1998 jkh

Make fexists/fload work with existing string literals instead. Doing
my own string literal handling is just too wonky.


40929 05-Nov-1998 jkh

Remember a bit more of my forth and do:

o Add fexists word to check for the presence of a file
o make fexists and fload immediate words which DTRT both interpreted
and compiled (doh!)
o add an init word which gets run at bootstrapping time to do extra
post-coldload initialization (in the default implementation, we
look for /boot/boot.4th and load it if found).


40890 04-Nov-1998 msmith

Improve the assertion testing for successful softword compilation.
The excessive use of assert() vs. robust error checking is annoying.


40843 03-Nov-1998 msmith

Add the Ficl (Forth Inspired Command Language) interpreter. If all goes well,
this will allow us to manage bloat in the loader by using a bytecoded HLL
rather than lots of C code. It also offers an opportunity for vendors
or others with special applications to significantly customise the boot
process without having to commit to a divergent code branch.

This early commit is to allow others to experiment with the most effective
mechanisms for integrating FICL with the loader as it currently stands.
