PFTH(1)                          User Commands                          PFTH(1)

NAME
        pfth - interpret and execute Forth programs

SYNOPSIS
        pfth [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION
        pfth is a Forth interpreter that can load Forth source files from the
        SD card and execute them.  One or more Forth files can be specified
        on the command, which will be loaded when pfth starts up.

        pfth supports up to two simultaneous opened files.  This allows one
        file to be read while another one is written, or two files can be read
        at the same time.  This also allows including a file from another file.

        Simple versions of the ls, cat, rm and cp commands are supported under
        pfth.  The Forth source files used by pfth are included in the /forth
        directory.  It also includes a Forth versin of the ted line editor,
        some SD utilities and other sample programs.

        The user can exit pfth and return to the Spinix shell by typing the
        bye command.

LIMITATIONS
        pfth processes a maximum of six command-line parameters.  No more than
        two files can be opened at the same time.
