NAME
pForth - an ANS Forth interpreter written in ANSI ’C’
SYNOPSIS
pforth [options] files ...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
pForth is an interpreter for the ANS Forth language. It implements the
Core, Core Extensions, File-Access, Floating-Point, Locals,
Programming-Tools, and Strings word sets.
Any files specified on the command line will be processed as if typed.
This is useful for scripting.
OPTIONS
-d<filename.dic>
Specify an alternate dictionary. By default, pforth.dic will be
searched for first in the current directory, and then in
/usr/lib/pforth.
-i Initialization mode, used for creating an initial dictionary.
-q Quiet mode.
SEE ALSO
There are some other pForth docs in /usr/doc/pforth, and a web page at

Information on Forth in general is available from the Forth Interest
Group web site at http://www.forth.org/.
