IForth

Forth kernel for the Jupyter / IPython notebook. Requires IPython 3.x (master at the time of writing).

Development Installation

Clone this repository and do an editable pip install in this repository's folder:

pip install -e .
jupyter kernelspec install ./kernelspec --user   

Note: jupyter kernelspec install is required here, because unlike in normal install, the kernel does NOT automatically show in jupyter kernelspec list.

Usage

• Run jupyter notebook (or ipython notebook, whichever you prefer).
• In a new or existing notebook, use the kernel selector (located at the top right of the notebook) to select IForth.
