README
This is a typeset copy of Chuck Moore's unpublished book [Programming a Problem-Oriented-Language](http://colorforth.com/POL.htm).
This book describes the thinking behind the software that later became Forth.
What I have done:
* Convert HTML to markdown using [Pandoc](http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/)
* Correct spelling mistakes.
* Fix formatting.
* Convert to PDF via `LaTeX` using Pandoc and `memoir` package.
* Add a cover page.
To do:
* Convert hand-written drawings to vector graphics using something like `ditaa` or `PGF`.
* fix page numbers to start on chapter 1 instead of the title page.
