I'm thrilled to announce the release of bjForth v0.0.3 ๐ŸŽ‰

There's been a a heap of improvements and additions compared to the last release.

What's best is that they are automatically tested every time a change is pushed ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I dare you to Grab the latest tarball and hack yourself some serious Forth ๐Ÿ˜„

If you don't know Lisp, it'd probably take too long for me explain (i.e. I don't want to). Basically, macros let you rewrite your code arbitrarily, which would have the same effect as arbitrarily modifying the stack.

You are making the extremely incorrect presumption that I am unfamiliar with Lisp and how macros work. What is unclear to me is how you specifically think that arbitrarily rewriting code at macro expansion time is exactly equivalent to arbitrarily manipulating the stack at runtime.
