herkforth FAQ
Q: Where does herkforth001 come from? And what is it?
A: It's automatically created as part of the bootstrapping process (when you
run herkforth000
.) See: herkforth bootstrapping.
Q: Why don't the herkforth command keys work? They just type onto the screen like any other letter.
A: This is because your terminal isn't letting herkforth see what you've
typed until you press enter. If you run herkforth using the ./run
script included with the herkforth download, this shouldn't happen.
Q: Where can I see output? / Why isn't it displaying properly?
A: Output (eg from .
or emit
) is printed by the bottom of the screen.
In older versions (before 0.7?), you have to set term-height
and
term-width
by hand for this to work. See the documentation that came with
your version.
