                 Preloading installation-specific code  
   
 If you want to have some installation-specific files loaded when  
 Gforth starts (e.g., an assembler for your processor), put commands  
 for loading them into /usr/local/share/gforth/site-forth/site-init.fs  
 (if the commands work for all architectures) or  
 /usr/local/lib/gforth/site-forth/site-init.fs (for  
 architecture-specific commands);  
 /usr/local/lib/gforth/site-forth/site-init.fs takes precedence if both  
 files are present (unless you change the search path). The file names  
 given above are the defaults; if you have changed the prefix, you have  
 to replace "/usr/local" in these names with your prefix.  
   
 By default, the installation procedure creates an empty  
 /usr/local/share/gforth/site-forth/site-init.fs if there is no such  
 file.  
   
 If you change the site-init.fs file, you should run "make install"  
 again for the changes to take effect (Actually, the part of "make  
 install" starting with "rm gforth.fi" is sufficient).
