The *Forth at the heart of Konilo is not a traditional model. As
with other Forth systems, it has a *dictionary of *words and two
*stacks. But the implementation is quite different. For example:
In Konilo, source is evaluated token by token, using *sigils to
guide the compiler in understanding how to work with them.
Other than sigils, Konilo makes extensive use of *quotations and
*combinators to implement control structures.
Konilo provides a number of vocabularies for working with data
like strings and arrays which are not present in traditional
Forth systems.
