It's low level but rather easy to build up more complex stuff. It's never been that popular in general due to its RPN nature, but is quite popular for extensions in low memory situations: it's *extremely* compact when "compiled" (that is, when source code consisting solely of word definitions is executed, the result is quite tiny). To give one example of the latter, look at FreeBSD's boot loader. - -- brandon s. allbery [linux,solaris,freebsd,perl] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkzUq3sACgkQIn7hlCsL25UxZwCePgTpKGFnxZB+AJHugIAkXSbd FTUAnjl2FJEjyp9bxr3rh3Nmql3O0y22 =ncJH -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
