================================================================
# Background
The current generation of RetroForth did not start off as a
traditional, interactive Forth. A minimal (and lightly expanded)
REPL simply called the listener has existed, but it is not a
user friendly system.
Takawiri is a new listener. I've been slowly working on it,
with a goal of growing it into something useful. At present it
is functional, but many pieces remain. (See the end of this
document for a partial list).
# The Interface
Takawiri presents a fullscreen interface. This has a large area
for the display (the "text output buffer", or TOB) with a set
of introspection views on the right. At the bottom is the text
input area.

# Startup & Dependencies
Takawiri requires RetroForth 2024.9 or newer, with the ioctl
device enabled. It also requires a terminal with 100 or more
columns and at least 27 rows.
I do the initial configuration, and check these, reporting any
errors and exiting if necessary.
~~~
@Version #202409 lt?
[ 'Requires_RetroForth_2024.9_or_newer s:put nl bye ] if
~~~
Setup the local terminal dimensions. This uses the `ioctl:`
words added in RetroForth 2024.9.
~~~
ioctl:term-size (rows,cols) 'LT:W const 'LT:H const
LT:W #100 lt? [ 'Terminal_too_narrow! s:put nl bye ] if
LT:H #27 lt? [ 'Terminal_too_short! s:put nl bye ] if
~~~
Setup the text output buffer dimensions. The width is currently
fixed at 80 columns; the height is set based on the terminal
height.
~~~
#80 'TOB:W const
LT:H #2 - 'TOB:H const
~~~
Load dependencies from the library.

# Utilities
I intend for takawiri to provide a variety of useful tools to
aid in using RetroForth interactively.
This word provides access to retro-describe(1).

## String Preview
This is the start of code to display temporary strings on the
data stack. The plan is to have it show below the stack values,
in a format like:
<depth> <first XX characters>
The <depth> data will match up to the values in the stack disp.
Note: this won't be useful until after the alternate `s:evaluate`
is done.

# Watchlist
The watchlist will allow monitoring a small number of addresses
in the right panel of the interface. A use case might be to
do something like:

================================================================
Things needed:
- termios device & words (or add termios to unix device?)
- colors for interface elements
- refactor & document everything
- line editing
