# Alee Forth
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Still very much in development! Not suitable for real applications yet.**
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alee is a portable and concise Forth implementation in modern C++. Its primary aims are for reduced program size and execution efficiency. Portability includes bare-metal platforms, with intentions to support microcontrollers with kilobytes of memory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Built-in words
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
drop dup swap pick rot >r r>
|
||
|
|
here allot const imm @ ! : ; (
|
||
|
|
+ - * / %
|
||
|
|
= <
|
||
|
|
& | ^ << >>
|
||
|
|
sys
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `sys` word links to a C++ function for user-defined functionality.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Building
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alee requires `make` and a C++17-compatible compiler.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To compile, simply run the `make` command. The resulting binary, `alee`, runs a read-eval-print loop.
