Hey. Thank you for this project. I was able to build it and work with pforth, great experience. I used cmake for the build, which is where I came across initial issues with the dictionary file build.
Updating the readme.txt is one approach here, modifying CMakeLists.txt to support building in a non-root directory may also work. I could submit a PR for that if you wanted.
Have a great weekend.

I improved the README in #124

Yes, I would appreciate any help you can offer with CMAKE.

If I wanted to install pForth in /usr/local/bin, where is pForth going to find the dictionary file? Where is it going to write it? Perhaps env variables?
I think it might be useful to be able to run a turnkey forth application from any directory…. Like we have save-Forth built in, maybe some kind of installer word built-in, too?
is shebang supported? Something like this would work:
somefile.f (chmod 755):
#!/usr/local/bin/pforth -i path-to-application
forth code here (ASCII)
Just thinking out loud here…

@mscwartz - I created a new Issue for your topic. 3146
This topic is about compiling the original Forth code.
Your topic is about loading pre-compiled dictionary files.

I am closing this because the docs have been modified.
If jgerrish wants to submit a modified CMake file then that would be most welcome.
