It's the same plan, actually.
Forget the furth programming language for a minute and just think
about the process of adding arch functionality in the form of furth
primitive commands. With very little waste, that work also makes
arch functionality available in a way that is easy to bind to Perl,
Python, Ruby, or whatever.
