Stack notation: "<stack before> -- <stack after>". Rightmost is
|
|
top of stack (TOS). For example, in "a b -- c d", b is TOS
|
|
before, d is TOS after. "R:" means that the Return Stack is
|
|
modified. "I:" prefix means "IMMEDIATE", that is, that this
|
|
stack transformation is made at compile time.
|
|
|
|
Word references (wordref): When we say we have a "word
|
|
reference", it's a pointer to a word's *code link*. For example,
|
|
the address that "' DUP" puts on the stack is a wordref, that
|
|
is, a reference to the code link of the word DUP.
|
|
|
|
PF: Parameter field. The area following the code link of a
|
|
word. For example, "' H@ 1+" points to the PF of the word H@.
