Touche!

That being said, it makes me wonder if a some programs should be added to the standard test suite to show more than functionality for Standard Forth but demonstrate some utility as well.

A suite a demonstration programs might catch some the gotchas that don't show
up in a word by word test approach as well.

Are there any favourite candidate APPs that could be bundled with compilers to demonstrate that they will compile and run on "standard" systems?

Yes, it might, but if the test suite is any good, it's unlikely.
Application programmers often avoid the murky corners where
implementation bugs hide; that's why the bugs hide there, and are not
caught earlier.  Of course, once in a while an application programmer
strays in one of those corners, and is then bitten by such a bug, but
all the other murky corners may still be infested by bugs.

By contrast, when a test programmer writes test cases, he purposely go
into those corners, and he does it with short test cases so that one
does not have to understand a huge application to understand the bug.

I think one Forth implementor complained about the test cases that I
produce, because my test cases uncover bugs in his Forth system that
don't show up at his client with a huge application.  Of course, the
question is: If you are an application programmer, do you want a
system that just stands the test of being able to run some
applications, even if one of them is huge, without knowing what
programming practices the programmers of these applications use, or do
you prefer a system that has also removed the bugs uncovered by
contrived tests?

>Are there any favourite candidate APPs that could be bundled with compilers to demonstrate that they will compile and run on "standard" systems? 

<https://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/appbench.zip> is an
application benchmark that is intended to run on many systems; it's
not a test suite, though.

Well, it is kind of funny how huge apps can fail to trip on bugs. The programming style used to write the huge app is the same style used to write all of its small components. So, it's the style that fails to break the compiler.

He should have said "cards, crosswords AND Sudoku."

He doesn't realize that he is asserting that it surpasses at least
one of the three, but not necessarily all.

Of course, we can't expect him to understand simple logic.
He is a Forth programmer.

Since it was so difficult for him to write a program to process data,
it was his practice to pre-process the data for the program.

Ruby:

text =
  "Chuck Moore said something similar:

    I write Forth code every day. It is a joy to write a few simple words
    and solve a problem. As brain exercise it far surpasses cards,
    crosswords or Sudoku.".
  gsub(/\s+/, " ")

patterns = /\A(\w+).*?(y)/, /t( .. )/, /I (.).(..)/, /p(..) /, /pa(..)/

patterns.map{|p| text.scan(p).flatten.join}.join

    ==>"Chucky is witless"

Not write code.  Port code.

From gforth to pfth: https://github.com/parallaxinc/spinsim/tree/master/pfth103_p2

Which "implements all 133 of the ANS Forth core words, and 38 of the
45 core ext words."

Simpler is better if you plan to port the code to a very simple Forth.

I can imagine this guy's frustration.

Step 1. reimplement { ... } locals syntax.

Step 2. reimplement structures.fs, not the most bare-bones of
structures libraries.

Step 3?. reimplement ALLOCATE

Step 4. reimplement NUMBER ,and any other unnoticed non-ANS words

.... well that's it.  And there isn't much that's non-ANS there.  And
the structures and {} stuff is so simply used that you could just
drop-in replace them with something bare-bones.

Hm.  No, looking at lisp.fs, this guy's problem is that he was only
pretending to be a Forth programmer.

lisp.fs is 500 lines long.  It stops being interesting (from a Forth
perspective) at less than 150 lines in.  The rest is all just putting
the lisp together

This guy has never written anything in Forth.  He's used it like RPL
on a HP calculator, just to peek and poke and dink around.

"pfth should be a richer implementation."

That's a fair desire I guess, but it shouldn't be cast as a
complaint about Forth.

A bigger language can't be a defense against slimmer implementations
when the already slim language isn't fully implemented.

Even so, it's appreciated:

If it's just the syntax, you can find an implementation of this syntax
based on Forth-94 (LOCAL) in
<https://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/compat.zip>.  However,
(LOCAL) is not in CORE or CORE EXT.

>Step 2. reimplement structures.fs, not the most bare-bones of
>structures libraries.

That's also in the compat library.  It uses some words outside CORE
and CORE EXT, but, e.g., FLOAT words only for defining FP fields,
which you won't need if you don't have the FLOAT wordset, so just
comment these words out.

>Step 3?. reimplement ALLOCATE

That's a harder one, if you want the full functionality.

>Step 4. reimplement NUMBER ,and any other unnoticed non-ANS words

You can check for non-ANS words with Gforth's ansreport.fs.

>Hm.  No, looking at lisp.fs, this guy's problem is that he was only
>pretending to be a Forth programmer.

Who?  Schani?  As he writes in
<http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/schani/oldstuff/#lisp>:

|When I learn a new programming language, the first program I write in
|that language is usually an interpreter for a small subset of Lisp or

So yes, this was his first Forth program.

As a first Forth program is impressive. But maybe more
feedback at right time could helped that  'lisp.fs' be
well done as a forth program.

No, I mean the porter.  The guy who took his failure to port
Schani's program as an affirmation that Forth is a toy language.

OK, that explains the odd stuff that humptydumpty noted.  I'd
wondered if maybe "0 variable ..." were a rewrite from code that had
used an initializing variant of VARIABLE like "0 var ..."

Hi!

Tested and not working. One definition is wrong.

Originally:

: symtab-lookup { namea nameu -- }
    symtab-first @
    begin
        dup 0<>
    while
        >r
        r@ symtab-namea @ r@ symtab-nameu @ namea nameu compare
        0= if
            r> symtab-lisp @ unloop exit
        endif
        r> symtab-next @
    repeat
    drop 0 ;

'unloop' shouldn't be there. Also 'drop 0'. Also stack comments are wrong.
I would write:

: symtab-lookup ( namea nameu -- lisp|0 )
    2>R symtab-first @
    BEGIN
        dup
    WHILE
        dup symtab-namea @ over symtab-nameu @ 2R@ compare
        IF
            symtab-next @
        ELSE
            symtab-lisp @ 2RDROP EXIT
        THEN
    REPEAT
    2RDROP
;

Testing:
~/src/lisp> gforth lisp.fs -e 'S" test.scm" lisp-load-from-file cr .s cr bye'

lisp.fs:173: warning: redefined number4 120 
<1> 0 


Other things looks strange, like:

0 variable symtab-first
drop

Wow! Better write comment that "Gforth initializes variables with 0",
or write it as should be:

0 variable symtab-first  0 symtab-first !

Partially I understand complaints of porter.

Have a nice day,
humptydumpty

Hi!

I polished a little source file, words preserved their stack-effect
 and added user input(exit through Ctrl+D). Now I can have fun, something like:

 bo@linux-h5s7:~/src/lisp> gforth lisp.fs
Gforth 0.7.3, Copyright (C) 1995-2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Gforth comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `license'
Type `bye' to exit
  ok
repl 
 
(define fac 
   (lambda (n) 
      (cond  ((eq? n 1) 
              1) 
             (t 
                (* n (fac (- n 1))))))) 
; 
(display (fac 5)) ; 120

Is there a place that we can see your source code.
That's very cool.

Have traveled trough source expression '(display 3)' as 'REPL' does step by step.
Quite a journey! :)

A little improved version is here, most important is 'repl' modification.

: REPL  BEGIN parsetext lisp-load-from-string drop AGAIN
;

as originally forgotten 'drop' :|

Cleaned up a little and added few words.

Examples:

bo@linux-h5s7:~/tmp/lisp> cat scaled-math.scm sqrt.scm 
; scaled-math.scm
(define pi  (lambda (x)   (*/ 355 113))) ;
(define math-scale 1000) ;
(define s+  (lambda (x y) (+  x y))) ;
(define s*  (lambda (x y) (*/ x y math-scale))) ;
(define s/  (lambda (x y) (*/ math-scale x y))) ;
(define s1/ (lambda (x)   (*/ math-scale math-scale x))) ;
; sqrt.scm  - Square root by Heron method
(load scaled-math.scm) ;
(define average                     
   (lambda (x y)                    
      (/ (s+ x y) 2))) ;             

(define heron-step                 
   (lambda (x y)                   
      (average x (s/ y x)))) ;     

(define heron

       (cond ((eq? y1 y0) y1) 
             (t

(define sqrt

This is really cute.  Do you use Anton's GC?

Hi!

I have not (yet) plan to use extensively, just intended to get some insights
 of Scheme interpreter :)

I'm happy that I get such (mental food) in Forth. Following byte by byte
REP cycle for an particular input is an adventure itself! :)

I guess that Forth is more of an idea than a computer language and that the idea of Forth will develop as other good ideas develop in a long-term perspective. Charles Moore have said that Forth is an approach to programming and he never seems to use any standards. I guess he use no libraries neither, but copy and paste from his own code.

I think a lot of forthers is a bit like Charles Moore. It's all about the idea and our own code. I rather use a less effective code (in progress) of my own, than some alien code by someone else, especially when it comes to packages. What I do use is others definitions and Forth implementations. And I also like to test other peoples code from time to time, last the fancy Lisp implementation that humptydumpty manage to get running. And I want the possibility of other people to run my code if they want.

The CORE and DOUBLE words in ANS Forth are the most important definitions to be standardized. And they shouldn't change from standard to standard. FLOATING and FILE are nice but could maybe be developed further. Personally I'm not interested at all in future implementations of various computer scientific ideas that maybe not belong in Forth at all. 

Recognizers seems to be a good idea if implemented in a smart and simple way. From there really nice implementations of new data types would be possible.

Also, why are there no discussion of a standard for rudimentary graphic words? Or are there?

As I'm doing (paid) embedded development at the moment, I'm currently
rather sad at the Forth world. The term "Sudoko for programmers" might
be true. I'd like to do embedded Forth, but there's little out there
to drive real hardware that one will typically use these days in the
embedded world: LCDs, touch panels, that sort of stuff.

One possible option is noForth. Those guys seem to have developed the
software libraries to drive a whole host of hardware on the MSP430
platform. That's very encouraging.
