In VE on the SMS, the first contents line would always be cleared because of NEWLN being called when the FBUF would spit its last char. Inconvenient... I've added a "graphical" mode to the grid subsystem to inhibit this behavior in a graphical situation such as in VE. Also, write a more complete Grid documentation. |

C VM
This is a C implementation of Collapse OS' native words. It allows Collapse OS to run natively on any POSIX environment.
Requirements
You need curses
to build the forth
executable.
Build
Running make
will yield forth
and stage
executables.
Usage
To play around Collapse OS, you'll want to run ./forth
. Refer to
doc/intro.txt
for help.
The program is a curses interface with a limited, fixed size so that it can
provide a AT-XY interface. If you wish to change the size of that screen, you
need to modify COLS and LINES in both forth.c
and forth.fs
.
You can get a REPL by launching the program with rlwrap(1)
like
this:
rlwrap -e '' -m -S '> ' ./forth /dev/stdin
Problems?
If the forth
executable works badly (hangs, spew garbage, etc.),
it's probably because you've broken your bootstrap binary. It's easy to
mistakenly break. To verify if you've done that, look at your git status. If
stage.bin
is modified, try resetting it and then run make clean all
. Things
should go better afterwards.
A modified blkfs
can also break things (although even with a completely broken
blkfs, you should still get to prompt), you might want to run make pack
to
ensure that the blkfs
file is in sync with the contents of the blk/
folder.
If that doesn't work, there's also the nuclear option of git reset --hard
and git clean -fxd
.
If that still doesn't work, it might be because the current commit you're on is broken, but that is rather rare.
