Wait a minute. It was functional? My impression was this does not even
build. Maybe I was wrong. Or did you fix it through the modifications
below?

Why? There's colorforth, which I did not append, in the same file as it
is also a forth implementation. And they are not the only ones. I picked
this name as forth is the name of the language, like in lisp.scm,
scheme.scm, etc.
I want to send a patch to rename it to forth.scm and add colorforth into
the file.

Thank you for reviewing and applying
