Implement '\'-style comments
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 3 Oct 2020 18:32:39 +0000 (20:32 +0200)]
Implement the 'KEY' primitive for user input
This is a lower-level primitive for getting user input. We now also use this to
implement READ-WORD.
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 3 Oct 2020 17:15:36 +0000 (19:15 +0200)]
Clarify some explanations in the README
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 25 Apr 2020 23:41:54 +0000 (01:41 +0200)]
Update README with link to UEFI tutorial
Jonas Hvid [Fri, 20 Mar 2020 18:32:15 +0000 (19:32 +0100)]
Add instructions for running on real hardware
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 14 Mar 2020 20:38:43 +0000 (21:38 +0100)]
Improve build instructions in README
Jonas Hvid [Mon, 9 Mar 2020 16:22:19 +0000 (17:22 +0100)]
Handle newlines (in both input and output)
Jonas Hvid [Mon, 9 Mar 2020 16:01:33 +0000 (17:01 +0100)]
Show the user's input on screen as they are typing
Jonas Hvid [Mon, 9 Mar 2020 14:13:34 +0000 (15:13 +0100)]
Make it run on UEFI!
The program is now usable, albeit barely, running inside QEMU, with the only
dependency being UEFI! Very cool!
Right now, no output is printed to the screen when you type characters, newlines
aren't printed correctly, and the program doesn't accept Enter as valid
whitespace when reading input.
Jonas Hvid [Mon, 9 Mar 2020 13:50:45 +0000 (14:50 +0100)]
Get rid of remaining "loose" syscalls
Jonas Hvid [Mon, 9 Mar 2020 13:41:33 +0000 (14:41 +0100)]
Remove old code from example.f
Jonas Hvid [Mon, 9 Mar 2020 13:34:34 +0000 (14:34 +0100)]
Improve README and update information about sys.f
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 18:32:16 +0000 (19:32 +0100)]
Finish implementing embedded sys.f
OK, this works... barely!
We have to omit the final newline in sys.f for it to work. We should probably
take another look at that.
But, it does technically work: We can now run just ./main, and the sys.f file
will be run automatically from inside the program. Very cool!
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 18:17:02 +0000 (19:17 +0100)]
Use a different approach to reading from buffers
We now store INPUT-BUFFER as a global variable. Words like S" and READ-WORD
automatically use this INPUT-BUFFER if it's available.
Our program currently segfaults on startup, which is probably because of at
least one of the following:
1. We don't handle the case where an input buffer ends in whitespace in
INTERPRET-STRING.
2. We don't do anything to resume reading from user input when the buffer has
been exhausted.
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 17:42:47 +0000 (18:42 +0100)]
Implement BUF"
This still doesn't actually work, because our definition of : doesn't make sense
when we're reading input from the buffer.
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 17:12:07 +0000 (18:12 +0100)]
Implement INTERPRET-STRING
INTERPRET-STRING works, but the program crashes on startup, because sys.f uses
words that assume that they are being run with user input, for example S" and
READ-WORD.
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 14:48:18 +0000 (15:48 +0100)]
Implement POP-WORD
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 14:27:49 +0000 (15:27 +0100)]
Embed sys.f into binary and start working on POP-WORD
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 13:57:05 +0000 (14:57 +0100)]
Refactor INTERPRET so we also have INTERPRET-WORD
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 13:39:22 +0000 (14:39 +0100)]
Add notes about loading files from disk
Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Mar 2020 13:19:27 +0000 (14:19 +0100)]
Move some Forth words to separate 'bootstrap.asm' file
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 7 Mar 2020 19:08:13 +0000 (20:08 +0100)]
Move printing syscall to a macro
This will allow us to more easily replace it with the UEFI
implementation.
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 7 Mar 2020 18:30:40 +0000 (19:30 +0100)]
Add syntax=fasm to FASM files
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 7 Mar 2020 17:18:54 +0000 (18:18 +0100)]

Jonas Hvid [Sat, 7 Mar 2020 16:33:41 +0000 (17:33 +0100)]
Implement a subroutine to print a byte-string of a given length

Jonas Hvid [Tue, 10 Dec 2019 17:21:41 +0000 (18:21 +0100)]
Reimplement HELLO in Forth
This implementation is a bit awkward right now, but we should be able to clean
it up later.

Fix bug in interface of parse_number
This procedure did not actually do what it claimed to be doing. It just happened

Jonas Hvid [Sun, 8 Dec 2019 17:32:21 +0000 (18:32 +0100)]
Add space for immediate flag
We don't actually use this for anything yet.
Jonas Hvid [Fri, 6 Dec 2019 13:48:12 +0000 (14:48 +0100)]

We can now do stuff like:
S" 3HELLO" CREATE
S" DOCOL" FIND >CFA ,
S" HELLO" FIND >CFA ,
S" HELLO" FIND >CFA ,
S" HELLO" FIND >CFA ,

Refactor: Create INTERPRET word

functionality.)

Implement FIND
I could only be bothered to add some of the words to the dictionary in this
commit. We should probably have a macro for that.

Implement word for reading numbers
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 23 Nov 2019 17:00:05 +0000 (18:00 +0100)]
Implement .U
Jonas Hvid [Sat, 23 Nov 2019 16:21:29 +0000 (17:21 +0100)]
Also implement BRANCH
I feel like we should theoretically be able to implement this in terms of
0BRANCH, but since we don't have a mechanism for getting the "outer" value of
RSI inside the function, we can't just implement it as
: BRANCH 0 0BRANCH ;
In that case, RSI would point to EXIT when executing 0BRANCH.

Rename TYPE to TELL
