+"AGAIN" is an immediate function word that is used together with +BEGIN and instead of END to implement structured +execution control. AGAIN scans the datastack for the nearest preceding +BEGIN marker and lays out an unconditional branch from this point the +beginning of the block during execution. It thereafter performs the +END compile action to end the block.
"ARGS" is a value word that holds a pointer to the command line data block which consists of a count cell followed by that many asciiz -pointers and then a 0 cell.

"S"" is a function word that pushes the [n:char] pointer for a string -inlined subsequently to it in the containing definition. This is -similar to LIT but for a string literal.
"LIT-STRING" is a function word that pushes the char* and length n of +a subsequent inline string, then advances execution to continue after +the string. This is similar to LIT but for a block literal.
Note that the inlined byte count includes the terminating NUL byte.

"LOAD-FILE"" is a function word that opens a file via -OPEN-FILE", allocates a stream buffer of 15000 -bytes for reading it, saves the stream pointer as value for the newly -created filename variable, and then it invokes -EVALUATE-STREAM for processing the file.
"S"" is an immediate function word that compiles the subseqent +characters up to terminating double-quote into the current definition, +preceded by a LIT-STRING cell, and the count of +bytes scanned. The inline text includes a terminating NUL character +which also is included in the inlined count.
Note that "S"" uses " for reading the string.

+"LOAD-BUFFER-SIZE" is a variable word telling the buffer size in bytes +that LOAD-FILE should use.

+"LOAD-FILE" is a function word that evaluates a text file. It opens a +file via OPEN-FILE and sets up a stream with a +buffer of LOAD-BUFFER-SIZE bytes for +reading it. The stream is passed to +EVALUATE-STREAM for processing its words. Upon +its return the file is closed and the stream memory is reclaimed, and +then the function returns whatever +EVALUATE-STREAM returns.

"OPEN-FILE"" is a function word that reads the intputstream for a -filename, adds that to the dictionary as a no-content variable, opens -that file and returns the input file descriptor.
"OPEN-FILE" is a function word that opens the file named by the zero +terminated character string and returns the file descriptor, or if +less than 0, the system call error code.

+"RSP" is a function word that pushes the return stack pointer value +onto the data stack.
Data stack: ( n -- a )
+"R[n]" is a function word that pushes the address for the n:th cell of +the return stack onto the data stack.
Data stack: ( stream -- n )
+"READ-STREAM-LINE" is a function word that gets the next line from the +given stream buffer into PAD and returns number of characters. If the +stream is backed by a file descriptor, the stream buffer is refilled +from there as needed, by a SYS_READ call when more characters are +needed.
At the end of the stream READ-WORD returns 0 length.
All character codes less or equal to 32 are regarded as "whitespace".
The "#" character following whitespace starts a line comment and the +rest of the line is ignored. Note that this is also recognised with +parethesis commenting.

";" (semi-colon) is an immediate function word that ends a new forth +definition by means of adding an EXIT cell, then changing +<<p_state,STATE> to interpreting.
"STR>TEMP" is a function word that copies a given string plus a +terminating NUL character into a TEMPSPACE snippet, +all preceded by a length cell. It returns a pointer for to the text in +the snippet and its length, excluding the NUL character at end and the +length cell before tie text.

+"TEMP" is a function word that "allocates" a TEMPSPACE +area of given size and returns its base address. The allocation is +temporary and only valid until there is a later allocation that +overruns this area.
Allocations are done in succession until the requested size overruns +the TEMPSPACE. If so, the allocation pointer is reset +and the space is allocated from start again. This is all intended for +small and short-lived data areas.
Data stack: ( -- a )
+"TEMPSPACE" is a variable word that holds three cells the for managing +"temporary memory":
+the size of the temporary memory space (default 104857600 bytes) +
++the base address for whole temporary memory area +
++the amount currently used +
+This memory is intended to be used by requesting snippets of memory in +a cyclic fashion via TEMP without concern about it possibly +overlapping a prior request.
Data stack: ( stream* -- )
+"UNSTREAM" is a function word that releases the memory allocated for a +stream, and closes the associated file if it’s a file stream.
This kind of stream has the stream header as a prefix within the +allocated memory. Thus, stream* is the base address for the memory to +reclaim, and the size of this is determined from the cell at (stream* ++ 16) plus the 32 bytes head itself.
Data value: ( wordlist -- ) Input stream: word
+"USE" is a function word that looks up next word given the wordlist. +It reads next word on INPUT via READ-WORD, +then temporarily changes CURRENT-WORDLIST to +FIND the word via the given wordlist, and returns the TFA +of that word, or just 0 if the word coudn’t be found.
