PostScript is somewhat different from Forth. I like to illustrate the
difference this say: compare
YOU FORTH LOVE IF HONK THEN
versus
you postscript love {honk} if
In Forth, you have a distinction between “compile time” and “run time”. In
PostScript, hardly anything happens at “compile time”. Note how control
constructs (conditionals, looping) are not specially handled at “compile
time”; they are just built-in functions.
