To Anton Ertl and Elizabeth Rather:

I guess the question is far more complicated than I realize. I understood FIG-Forth well but I haven't dived under the hood since then. But my vision is that sort of kernel that works like a condense particle on which surface code grows downwards to the different processors and upwards to an OS for all kind of equipment and to increasingly more sophisticated userinterfaces and other applications.

I think it will happen if computers are used in the future.

FIG-Forth was an implementation standard. It was simple to implement, 
following the model, but very slow. Other Forth implementations were 
faster and more powerful, at the cost of being somewhat more complex.

Forth standards since Forth94 (ANS Forth) have avoided any 
implementation constraints, but focus on defining an interface between a 
system (implementation) and programs (applications). The system 
encompasses all environmentally-dependent issues, such as processor and 
OS, and provides a defined set of services to applications including the 
Forth compiler and additional "core" software features.

Cheers,
Elizabeth

I loved the simplicity of FIG-Forth and I love the speed in modern Forth.

In my own personal Forth implementation (still under development), my strings are both counted and NULL terminated. The count does NOT include the NULL terminator.

So "ABC" would use 5 bytes and look like this:

3 65 66 67 0

This makes it easy to work with the strings using either approach. And I find that some activities are more straightforward when stopping at NULL as opposed to keeping a count and stopping when the count exceeds the count byte.
