Summary: What do they actually do? Message-ID: <417@mtk.UUCP> Date: 4 Apr 89 20:34:34 GMT Reply-To: marmar@mtk.UUCP (Mark Martino) Distribution: usa Organization: Mannesmann Tally, Kent, WA 98032 Lines: 9 Is the concept of vocabularies essential to FORTH? What do they do? How does one implement vocabularies? What does the mechanism look like inside? "Starting Forth" gives a good explanation, but I'm still confused about some of the details.
