You can usually use
see emit
Which in Gforth gives you something like:
: (emit)
outfile-id emit-file drop ;
latestxt
Defer emit
IS emit
ok
Question
When a word is already defined in Forth, is there a way to print its definition?
I've heard that many of Forth's built-in functions such as emit
, drop
, etc. are defined in terms of the language itself, and I'd like to be able to look at their definitions.
