Name

sliteral:string — compiling primitive

Synopsis

FORTH

SLITERAL ( -- string )();
p4:"sliteral";

Description

 compile-time: ( CS: str-ptr str-len -- )

this word does almost the same as LITERAL - it takes an S" string as specified in the CS-STACK at compile time and compiles into the current definition where it is returned as if there were a direct string-literal. This can be used to compute a string-literal at compile-time and hardwire it.

 example:
   : ORIGINAL-HOME  [ $HOME COUNT ] SLITERAL ; ( -- str-ptr str-len )
