The comment I seem to remember but can't find
right now claimed that
Forth requires the human programmer to serve as a preprocessor.
Clever, and painfully true, [...]
Indeed...but true of all other lanugages too (though I'm not convinced
"_pre_processor" is actually accurate, even in FORTH's case).
Converting a problem into a program to solve it is, after all, what
programming _is_.
