Forth v6 Function Glossary

This glossary provides detailed definitions for the general purpose words (Forth functions) available in the v6 Forth kernel. Separate glossaries define the assembler and C debugging words available. A separate page lists all the Functions that Disable Interrupts.

For help in understanding the notation used in the following function definitions, consult the description of stack symbols, abbreviations and naming conventions.

Software development in Forth uses the Codeblocks-based Mosaic IDE Plus Integrated Development Environment; this is the same IDE used for software development in C. While Forth programmers will not use the IDE's GNU C (GCC) compiler, the IDE provides a full-featured text editor and customized terminal for rapid Forth code downloads and interactive Forth debugging sessions with the 9S12 (HCS12) processor on the controller board.

This glossary is split into three web pages, for words in ASCII (alphabetical) order. Forth words are not case sensitive. You can click on the links in the first column of the following table to be taken directly to the glossary pages containing words starting with the desired character.
