So I saw that Colorforth2a requires a 32bit color mode, and as such
tweaked the location where it sets the video mode in BIOS by editing
address 0x18C in a hex editor and changed it from 18 to 44 which is the
Bochs/Plex86 VGA bios specific mode for 1024x768x8888 as per:
#define VBE_OWN_MODE_1024X768X8888 0x144
And low and behold, Colorforth is running under QEMU on a MacBook Pro
under MacOSX.... with one slight problem, R & B are swapped resulting in
Blue definitions, light blue execution, teal literals, yellow macros,
and white comments.
While I actually really like this color scheme, if any one has a good
idea on how to swap R & B I'd love to hear it :)
