### If you get stuck.
The fOOrth language REPL has several commands inspired by the APL interpreter
of the old PDP-10 system I used so many years ago. The commands take the form
of )command. That's a right paren then the command name. Some useful ones
to know are:
)"shell command" -- execute the specified command in the shell.
)classes -- list the system classes.
)globals -- list any global variables.
)load"filename" -- load the fOOrth file called filename.
)irb -- launch an interactive irb debug session.
)quit -- exit fOOrth.
)time -- display the current time.
)show -- after each command show the contents of the data stack.
)noshow -- don't do that.
)version -- display current language version info.
)words -- list all defined method names.
