* How to meta-compile a new kernel
After making changes the the Forth kernel source in =kernel.fb=,
restart =volksforth.com= to have a clean system and compile a new
"minimal" kernel with =include kernel.fb=. This will create a new
=FORTH.COM= executable.
* creating a minimal system with a simple editor
Execute =forth.com include minimal.sys= to generate the file
=minimal.com= which contains a minimal VolksForth system with the
Retro-Forth editor
https://fossil.forth-ev.de/volksforth/wiki?name=Atari8bit-retrofortheditor
This system can be used to edit the file =volksforth.sys= or other
Forth source block files needed to create a full VolksForth system.
* creating a full VolksForth system from the minimal kernel
Execute =forth.com include volks4th.sys= to create a new fully
equipped VolksForth executable =volks4th.com=.
