Hello!
I'm trying to run iForth from Emacs the way I've done this for gforth.

So I have the following in my .emacs:
---------
(require 'forth-mode "gforth.el")
(autoload 'run-forth "gforth")
(autoload 'forth-block-mode "gforth")
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.\\(f[s]?\\|frt\\)$" . forth-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.fb$" . forth-block-mode))

(add-hook 'forth-mode-hook
          (function (lambda ()
            ;; customize variables here:
            (setq forth-indent-level 4)
            (setq forth-minor-indent-level 2)
            (setq forth-hilight-level 3)
            )))

(defun run-gforth () (interactive) (run-forth "/usr/local/bin/gforth"))
(defun run-iforth () (interactive) (run-forth "/Users/sasha/Library/iForth/i64.app/Contents/MacOS/i64.sh"))
---------

Threr is a problem yet. When I try calling run-iforth it hangs with the
following output:
---------
IFORTH=/Users/sasha/Library/iForth
IFORTHBIN64=/Users/sasha/Library/iForth/i64.app/Contents/MacOS/iforth.img
IFORTH_VERBOSE=1
TERM_PROGRAM=
[1] iForth server for Darwin, rev 1.01, Dec 30 2010, 11:09:21.

/Users/sasha/Library/iForth/i64.app/Contents/MacOS/iforth :: TERM does not exist.
^[[6n
---------

The result of successfull run in iTerm looks like this:
---------
IFORTH=/Users/sasha/Library/iForth
IFORTHBIN64=/Users/sasha/Library/iForth/i64.app/Contents/MacOS/iforth.img

As far as I understand there is a problem with a terminal handling. BTW
there is a similar problem with Swift Forth – it also can not be running
from Emacs for the same reason.

I'm just wondering, is it possible and how to run iForth from Emacs and use it
with gforth-mode? 

Thanks in advance,
Alexander
