   At the 2015 Forth200x meeting we decided on ".4th", and that has been   
   added to the extensions that VFX knows about   
   <2016Mar29.122333@mips.complang.tuwien.ac.at>.  And indeed:   
      
   [/tmp:149794] echo 'cr .( hi) cr' >foo.4th   
   [/tmp:149795] vfx64 "include foo"

   Including foo.4th   
   hi   
      
   bye   
      
   It does not work for sf64, while "include f" works for foo.f.   
      
   Gforth does not know anything about extensions, so you always have to   
   mention the extension explicitly.   
      
   theforth.net requires the metadata in package.4th.

   What makes you think so?  Why would Gforth contain Fortran programs?   
      
   >gforth also uses .fs for non forth files,   
      
   Examples?

   Sure, why not.
