rajamesandClaude Opus 5.5 0da7e32a0b feat(v4.0.0): the stacks are guarded (D-16); DEPTH, PICK and ROLL
Ruled 2026-10-04, revising D-2: stack overflow and underflow are errors
that are shown and return to the prompt, not silent wrap-around.

- Each stack counts what it holds.  Before every opcode the executor
  checks that the stacks hold what it takes and have room for what it
  leaves; otherwise the opcode does nothing and the node faults, as for a
  bad address, to that kind's handler.  Every fault empties both stacks.
- The fault handler is now a table of five jumps: address, data overflow,
  data underflow, return overflow, return underflow.  The host node says
  "Stack overflow", "Stack underflow", "Return stack overflow",
  "Return stack underflow", then ERROR and the prompt.
- Two registers, DSTACK-DEPTH and RSTACK-DEPTH: a fetch reads the depth,
  a store empties the stack.  QUIT, ABORT and the error exits empty the
  return stack before they call anything; ABORT empties the data stack.
- capsule/forth.v4: DEPTH, PICK and ROLL, to FORTH-79 (counting from
  one).  PICK and ROLL set the values above the one wanted aside in
  memory, and work with the stack full.
- Division by zero now takes its operands off the stack, as v3 does.
- A colon with no room for its entry abandons the line.
- tests: every opcode at every depth of both stacks; the faults, the
  registers and the three words from the prompt.

The sizes are unchanged: ten values, nine return entries.

\ after another, for as long as the node runs; and the words that print text
\ written in the source.

\ WHAT THE CONSOLE SHOWS, as v3:
\ ok> 65 EMIT the prompt, then the line as it is typed
\ A ok what the line printed, then " ok"
\ ok> NOSUCH
\ UNKNOWN WORD: 'NOSUCH'
\ ERROR any line that sets NODE-ERROR ends so
\ ok> -1 @
\ Address out of range an address fault (D-14), from any depth
\ ERROR
\ The line itself is not sent back: the terminal shows what is typed.
\
\ THE STACKS are guarded (D-16): each counts what it holds, and a push onto
\ a full one or a pop from an empty one is a fault. So QUIT and ABORT, which
\ never return to whatever ran them, must empty the return stack, and ABORT
\ the data stack too. A store to RSTACK-DEPTH or DSTACK-DEPTH does that.
\
\ Constants the loader supplies:
\ (Q) word address of two cells of scratch for this file
\ DSTACK-DEPTH RSTACK-DEPTH word addresses of the stack registers
\ ( -- ) empty the return stack. `a` is only something to store: any
\ store to the register empties the stack, and `a` needs nothing to be on
\ the data stack. One cell of the data stack is used for a moment.
macro R-CLEAR RSTACK-DEPTH b! a !b endmacro

\ structures. A definition that was under way stays hidden.

\ 1 " ok", anything else " ERROR" -- and never returns. It is always jumped
\ to, never called, by something that has emptied the return stack (or by a
\ fault, which empties it). Each line is then interpreted with one return
\ entry under it, this word's call of INTERPRET.
