To make Chineese identifers? #207

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?

Request is tasking about changing the standard forth dictionary identifiers to 
Chinese.  If the byte values and sequence for each identifer were known, could 
this be a simple recompile? 

The assumption is that character input is already addressed properly by the 
operating system via the language and keyboard input method selections. 

This question is limited to remapping the existing dictionary word identifiers 
with arbitrary byte valid byte sequences; is there a simple way to do this?

Standard UTF8 is supported by PropForth. So if you have a terminal program that 
supports UTF8, you should be able to define words in any language/charset. If 
you want to change all the current identifiers it would be a recompile. 
Reasonably straightforward, but would take a bit of time. This means all the 
addons would have to to be edited as well.
