; A dictionary entry has this structure: ; - 7b name (zero-padded) ; - 1b flags (bit 0: IMMEDIATE) ; - 2b prev pointer ; - 2b code pointer ; - Parameter field (PF) ; ; The code pointer point to "word routines". These routines expect to be called ; with IY pointing to the PF. They themselves are expected to end by jumping ; to the address at the top of the Return Stack. They will usually do so with ; "jp exit". ; Execute a word containing native code at its PF address (PFA) nativeWord: jp (iy) ; Execute a list of atoms, which usually ends with EXIT. ; IY points to that list. compiledWord: push iy \ pop hl inc hl inc hl ; HL points to next Interpreter pointer. call pushRS ld l, (iy) ld h, (iy+1) push hl \ pop iy ; IY points to code link jp executeCodeLink ; Pushes the PFA directly cellWord: push iy jp exit ; Pushes the address in the first word of the PF sysvarWord: ld l, (iy) ld h, (iy+1) push hl jp exit ; The word was spawned from a definition word that has a DOES>. PFA+2 (right ; after the actual cell) is a link to the slot right after that DOES>. ; Therefore, what we need to do push the cell addr like a regular cell, then ; follow the link from the PFA, and then continue as a regular compiledWord. doesWord: push iy ; like a regular cell ld l, (iy+2) ld h, (iy+3) push hl \ pop iy jr compiledWord ; The IF word checks the stack for zero. If it's non-zero, it does nothing and ; allow compiledWord to continue. ; If it's zero, it tracksback RS, advance it until it finds a ELSE, a THEN, or ; an EXIT (not supposed to happen unless the IF is misconstructed). Whether ; it's a ELSE or THEN, the same thing happens: we resume execution after the ; ELSE/THEN. If it's a EXIT, we simply execute it. ifWord: pop hl ld a, h or l jp nz, exit ; non-zero, continue ; Zero, seek ELSE, THEN or EXIT. Continue to elseWord ; If a ELSE word is executed, it means that the preceding IF had a non-zero ; condition and continued execution. This means that upon encountering an ELSE, ; we must search for a THEN or an EXIT. ; To simplify implementation and share code with ifWord, we also match ELSE, ; which is only possible in malformed construct. Therefore "IF ELSE ELSE" is ; valid and interpreted as "IF ELSE THEN". elseWord: ; to save processing, we test EXIT, ELSE and THEN in the order they ; appear, address-wise. This way, we don't need to push/pop HL: we can ; SUB the difference between the words and check for zeroes. call popRS ; We need to save that IP somewhere. Let it be BC ld b, h ld c, l .loop: ; Whether there's a match or not, we will resume the operation at IP+2, ; which means that we have to increase BC anyways.

It's never going to be executed unless the wordlist ; is misconstructed. thenWord: jp exit ; This is not a word, but a number literal. This works a bit differently than ; others: PF means nothing and the actual number is placed next to the ; numberWord reference in the compiled word list.
