# Jonesforth-ARM

An ARM port of X86 JonesForth by Richard W.M. Jones [rich@annexia.org](mailto:rich@annexia.org)
at <http://annexia.org/forth>.

## What is this ?

Jonesforth-ARM is a Forth interpreter developed for ARM.

The algorithm for our unsigned DIVMOD instruction is extracted from 'ARM
Software Development Toolkit User Guide v2.50' published by ARM in 1997-1998

Compared to the original interpreter:

* We did not keep the jonesforth.f section allowing to compile assembly from
  the Forth interpreter because it was X86 specific.
* We pass all the original JonesForth's tests on ARM (except one which
  depends on the above X86 assembly compilation).
* We added a native signed DIVMOD instruction (S/MOD)

Another project porting Jonesforth on ARM is ongoing at
<https://github.com/phf/forth>

## Build and run instructions

If you are building on the ARM target, just type,

```
$ make
```

to build the forth interpreter.

After building, we recommend that you run the test-suite by executing,

```
$ make test
```

To launch the forth interpreter, type

```
$ cat jonesforth.f - | ./jonesforth
```
