This release contains support for Forth Server Pages.

A Forth Server Page can look like this:

<title>Forth Server page</title>

<% ." Hello!" %>

Colono is a lightweight HTTP server for Linux written in Forth. It uses an event-based I/O model. This allows handling many simultaneous connections without the need for tasks which are not available in all Forth implementations.

Processing HTTP requests is delegated to request handlers. A handler for GET which sends files is included. Handlers for e.g. POST requests can be added.

Colono 0.2 supports GForth, SwiftForth, and VFX Forth.
