Release v0.0.2 · bahmanm/bjforth

After nearly 2 years of work, I'm excited to release the first version of bjForth, featuring partial JONESFORTH compatibility and initial Java interop.
Grab it and start hacking: https://github.com/bahmanm/bjforth/releases/tag/v0.0.2
PS: bjForth is a Forth (indirect threaded) written entirely in Java and its execution model is influenced by that of JONESFORTH.
Doing that in Java sort of misses the point? I guess the enjoyment still counts if course.
Haha...good point! That said bjForth is still a fully indirect threaded Forth. It's just that instead of assembler and C/C++ it calls Java API to do its job.
Traditionally Forth is implemented completely in Forth. Jonesforth is kind of non-traditional in that sense, because it is in assembler.
