Abstract: To Catch a Rabbit While I have my new Red Book open, you may be The PostScript ™ Column Insights into PostScript Continuing our progress towards embedded systems programming in a PostScript-compatible interpreter, I think we should address the foundation of PostScript.(For those of you tuning in late, this is not the twilight zone!Catch the previous article in the Newsletter, Vol.2 No.4 pg. 5) In this article we will look at implementing PostScript-style control structures, names, and dictionaries.These concepts will form the basis for implementing a PostScript mini interpreter in Forth.We will also identify the major differences between Forth and PostScript, and nail down a word list that we will use to merge the two.And just to rankle and annoy, we'll toss in some Cas well.
