# 94290 09-Apr-2002 dcs

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

MFC after: 4 weeks


# 76116 29-Apr-2001 dcs

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.


# 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.


# 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.


# 51786 29-Sep-1999 dcs

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


# 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.

# 40987 07-Nov-1998 jkh

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).


# 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.
