From 7986c2b25e5175c94669fa25acb55c283824fde4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ed_ Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 20:33:43 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] conductor(deob_c11_ref): cluster_2_forth_bootslop_references.md - 2 forth reference files 3 sections. ~50 LOC. PRIMARY (forth references): 2 files (jombloforth.asm, jombloforth.f). Documents forth-specific style and the C-like idioms that translate to C11 (the user's own forth conventions inform the C11 style). --- .../cluster_2_forth_bootslop_references.md | 53 +++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 53 insertions(+) create mode 100644 conductor/tracks/video_analysis_deob_c11_reference_20260623/research/cluster_2_forth_bootslop_references.md diff --git a/conductor/tracks/video_analysis_deob_c11_reference_20260623/research/cluster_2_forth_bootslop_references.md b/conductor/tracks/video_analysis_deob_c11_reference_20260623/research/cluster_2_forth_bootslop_references.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..afa60c20 --- /dev/null +++ b/conductor/tracks/video_analysis_deob_c11_reference_20260623/research/cluster_2_forth_bootslop_references.md @@ -0,0 +1,53 @@ +# Cluster 2: forth bootslop references (PRIMARY — forth references) + +**Track:** `video_analysis_deob_c11_reference_20260623` +**Date:** 2026-06-23 +**Files audited:** 2 (jombloforth.asm, jombloforth.f) +**Role:** PRIMARY (forth references that inform the user's C11 style) + +> **Reading guide.** This cluster sub-report surveys the forth references in the user's forth bootslop project.
