− | + | Colibri Forth is built upon MECRISP (https://mecrisp.sourceforge.net, written by Matthias Koch), the Stellaris variant, an advanced Forth, that compiles to machine code on the target itself, for optimal performance. Additional work/inspiration has been source from Peter Schmid's Mecrisp-Cube project (https://github.com/spyren/Mecrisp-Cube). | |

+ | Forth is a stack-oriented language that has 2 stacks, one for data and one call stack for with return addresses. It has very simple syntactic rules; | ||
− | + | 1. Everything is a "word" which must be surrounded by whitespace. All non-whitespace bytes are allowed in word. | |
− | + | 1. Backslash is start of comment, and everything will be filtered out until parser reaches new line. | |
+ | 1. Everything between a pair of parentheses " ( xyz ) " is a comment. They can be stretching multiple lines. Nested parentheses are not supported. | ||
+ | 1. Thereafter, try to locate word in dictionary. If found, "use" (depends on whether compiling or executing) it. | ||
+ | 1. If word is not found in dictionary, try to parse it as a number. If successful, push number on stack. | ||
+ | 1. All words operate on the stacks. Typically manipulating the Top-Of-Stack (TOS), by popping value(s) off the top and pushing the result back on top. | ||
+ | 1. Forth is NOT a unified/standardized language and except for a small number of core words, there is no consensus of what the base vocabulary is. Many | ||
+ | think that the nearest a standard (ANS Forth) is too bloated and not suitable for all the target devices that a more lean Forth can run on. This means | ||
+ | that many libraries won't work out-of-the-box and will require tweaking by the user. | ||

− | + | = Interactivity = | |
− | + | Forth is an interactive language, which is awesome for embedded development. One can simply hook up a serial terminal and do development on the target itself. One can interactively work with the MCU registers and peripherals to figure out the proper configuration/operation without doing a full erase+write cycle to the flash memory. We can execute code directly from RAM and not commit it to Flash until we have worked out the details. | |

Colibri Forth is built upon MECRISP (https://mecrisp.sourceforge.net, written by Matthias Koch), the Stellaris variant, an advanced Forth, that compiles to machine code on the target itself, for optimal performance. Additional work/inspiration has been source from Peter Schmid's Mecrisp-Cube project (https://github.com/spyren/Mecrisp-Cube).
Architecture
Forth is a stack-oriented language that has 2 stacks, one for data and one call stack for with return addresses. It has very simple syntactic rules;
1. Everything is a "word" which must be surrounded by whitespace. All non-whitespace bytes are allowed in word. 1. Backslash is start of comment, and everything will be filtered out until parser reaches new line. 1. Everything between a pair of parentheses " ( xyz ) " is a comment. They can be stretching multiple lines. Nested parentheses are not supported. 1. Thereafter, try to locate word in dictionary. If found, "use" (depends on whether compiling or executing) it. 1. If word is not found in dictionary, try to parse it as a number. If successful, push number on stack. 1. All words operate on the stacks. Typically manipulating the Top-Of-Stack (TOS), by popping value(s) off the top and pushing the result back on top. 1. Forth is NOT a unified/standardized language and except for a small number of core words, there is no consensus of what the base vocabulary is. Many think that the nearest a standard (ANS Forth) is too bloated and not suitable for all the target devices that a more lean Forth can run on. This means that many libraries won't work out-of-the-box and will require tweaking by the user.
Colon ":" is the word to define other words, and the definition ends with semicolon ";". Example
: add4 4 + ; \ adds 4 to the value on TOS.
It is common to put the stack manipulation info as a comment after the defined word. Example
: add4 ( n -- n+4 ) 4 + ;
It is the same thing, just human-readable comment to hint at what the word does.
The Full Documentation of Mecrisp is written by Terry Porter and published at https://mecrisp-stellaris-folkdoc.sourceforge.io/
Mecrisp and Colibri Forth are not case-sensitive, but many other Forth variants are.
Interactivity
Forth is an interactive language, which is awesome for embedded development. One can simply hook up a serial terminal and do development on the target itself. One can interactively work with the MCU registers and peripherals to figure out the proper configuration/operation without doing a full erase+write cycle to the flash memory. We can execute code directly from RAM and not commit it to Flash until we have worked out the details.
Cookbook
We are going to assemble useful snippets and words that will be useful, but not common enough to be included in the standard vocabulary. We call this the Colibri Forth Cookbook and will be a slowly growing document of Forth for the Colibri family.

For flash, place it inside your definition ! setflags ( char -- ) Sets Flags with a mask. This isn't immediate, but for flash, place it inside your definition ! (create) name ( -- ) Creates and links a new invisible dictionary header that does nothing. Use FIG-style <builds .. does> ! find ( c-addr len -- a-addr flags ) Searches for a String in Dictionary. Gives back flags, which are different to ANS ! 0-foldable ( -- ) Current word becomes foldable with zero constants 1-foldable ( -- ) Current word becomes foldable with one constants 2-foldable ( -- ) Current word becomes foldable with two constants 3-foldable ( -- ) Current word becomes foldable with 3 constants ... 7-foldable ( -- ) Current word becomes foldable with 7 constants
Compiler essentials
(subtle differences to ANS)
execute ( a-addr -- ) Calls subroutine recurse ( -- ) Lets the current definition call itself ' name ( -- a-addr ) Tries to find name in dictionary gives back executable address ['] name ( -- a-addr) Tick that compiles the executable address of found word as literal postpone name ( -- ) Helps compiling immediate words. does> ( -- ) executes: ( -- a-addr ) Gives address to where you have stored data. <builds ( -- ) Makes Dictionary header and reserves space for special call. create name ( -- ) Create a definition with default action which cannot be changed later. Use <builds does> instead. Equivalent to : create <builds does> ; state ( -- a-addr ) Address of state variable ] ( -- ) Switch to compile state [ ( -- ) Switch to execute state ; ( -- ) Finishes new definition : name ( -- ) Opens new definition
Control structures
(exactly ANS) Internally, they have complicated compile-time stack effects.
if/else/then
flag if ... then flag if ... else ... then then ( -- ) This is the common else ( -- ) flag if ... [else ...] then if ( flag -- ) structure.
case
n case m1 of ... endof m2 .. ... ..... flag ?of ... endof all others endcase case ( n -- n ) Begins case structure of ( m -- ) Compares m with n, choose this if n=m ?of ( flag -- ) Flag-of, for custom comparisions endof ( -- ) End of one possibility endcase ( n -- ) Ends case structure, discards n
Indefinite Loops
begin ... again begin ... flag until begin ... flag while ... repeat repeat ( -- ) Finish of a middle-flag-checking loop. while ( flag -- ) Check a flag in the middle of a loop begin ( -- ) until ( flag -- ) begin ... flag until loops as long flag is true again ( -- ) begin ... again is an endless loop
Definite Loops
limit index do ... [one or more leave(s)] ... loop ?do ... [one or more leave(s)] ... loop do ... [one or more leave(s)] ... n +loop ?do ... [one or more leave(s)] ... n +loop k ( -- u|n ) Gives third loop index j ( -- u|n ) Gives second loop index i ( -- u|n ) Gives innermost loop index unloop (R: old-limit old-index -- ) Drops innermost loop structure, pops back old loop structures to loop registers exit ( -- ) Returns from current definition. Compiles a ret opcode. leave ( -- ) (R: old-limit old-index -- ) Leaves current innermost loop promptly +loop ( u|n -- ) (R: unchanged | old-limit old-index -- ) Adds number to current loop index register and checks whether to continue or not loop ( -- ) (R: unchanged | old-limit old-index -- ) Increments current loop index register by one and checks whether to continue or not. ?do ( Limit Index -- ) (R: unchanged | -- old-limit old-index ) Begins a loop if limit and index are not equal do ( Limit Index -- ) (R: -- old-limit old-index ) Begins a loop
Common Hardware access
(speciality!)
reset ( -- ) Reset on hardware level dint ( -- ) Disables Interrupts eint ( -- ) Enables Interrupts eint? ( -- ) Are Interrupts enabled ? nop ( -- ) No Operation. Hook for unused handlers !
