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.
