Here you can find some simple examples how to use BootFORTH (part of the new bootloader) together with terminal emulation code (available when compiling /sys/boot/i386/libi386 with -DTERM_EMU). Normally, you can place the files in /boot as they are here, and they will be automatically loaded by /boot/loader. You must choose between boot.4th or loader.rc, though. Copy one or the other, but not both. Also, menu.4th is only used by boot.4th, and menuconf.4th is only used by loader.rc, so you don't need to copy both files. The files are: boot.4th example of file which is always loaded by /boot/loader, if present in /boot/ loader.rc example of file which is always loader by /boot/loader, if present in /boot/ screen.4th helpful words for screen manipulation. frames.4th basic frame drawing primitives. Requires screen.4th. menu.4th example of simple startup menu. menuconf.4th another example of simples startup menu. You're encouraged to add more features to these files - I'm not a Forth hacker, unfortunately... Andrzej Bialecki <abial@freebsd.org> If you use loader.rc/menuconf.4th, be sure to create /boot/stable.conf and /boot/current.conf, like described in loader.conf(5), with appropriate configuration to distinguish one from the other.
