2004-09-20 I decided to put postforth v1 on permanent hold while I go with a new idea, which is postforth v2: borrowing MSDOS's earliest executable format, .COM. More details forthcoming as I see if this idea has any merit at all. If it works, it will be through the misc binaries mechanism. 2004-10-04 Going back-and-forth between using the extension .COM or .fcom as the binfmt_misc trigger (probably not .COM, because that's useful for real MSDOS .COM files to run under DOSEMU), and coming up with a magic number that also functions as a NOP within the binary. I kind of like RZ, which is PUSH EDX followed by POP EDX. It's a NOP, it's quick, and can be spotted easily when dumping a binary of many concatenated postFORTH words. 2004-10-07 Settled on the magic number method for now, and finally got a working setup, using objcopy since I couldn't figure out how to make a linker script do what I want.
