In addition, ANS Forth systems are required to document certain
implementation choices. This chapter tries to meet these
requirements. In many cases it gives a way to ask the system for the
information instead of providing the information directly, in
particular, if the information depends on the processor, the operating
system or the installation options chosen, or if they are likely to
change during the maintenance of Gforth.
