Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 715ebcc57e ttf_words.c: TTF-TEXT entry point, hmtx advance widths (item 4.3.7e)
Punch list §25 item 4.3.7e complete. New src/word_source/ttf_words.c
registers TTF-TEXT ( c-addr u x y size color -- ): lazily loads the v1
default font capsule + raster cache once, decodes UTF-8 (C
reimplementation mirroring capsules/fabric.4th's DECODE-UTF8 exactly),
looks up each glyph's cached bitmap, blits via fb_put_pixel, advances
the pen by the glyph's real hmtx advance width scaled to pixels.

Necessary plumbing: ttf_parse() now also locates hhea/hmtx, and
ttf_glyph_advance_width() reads a glyph's advance width -- required for
this item's own "proportional spacing correct" acceptance clause, no
advance-width data existed anywhere else in the parser. Verified in
tools/ttftest.c: A/a/0/space all read advance_width=600, correctly
uniform since JetBrainsMono-Regular.ttf is monospace.

(x,y) is raster pixel space (top-left origin, Y-down), deliberately not
the stroke font TEXT's Cartesian Y-up convention -- recorded explicitly
in ttf_words.h, not conflated.

Verified live, amd64, screendump: injected
S" Hi 4.3.7e!" 200 200 28 16777215 TTF-TEXT over a serial socket after
boot, no error, captured a screendump showing the string rendered
legibly with correct mixed-case/digit/punctuation glyphs and even
spacing. TTF-TEXT is this item's permanent deliverable, not a
throwaway probe. Compile-checked clean on all three architectures.

src/

Hosted StarForth VM implementation (compiled by the root Makefile). Bare-metal kernel sources live in src/starkernel/; FORTH word implementations in src/word_source/; the test harness in src/test_runner/; platform shims in src/platform/.

Entry point / interpreter core

  • main.c — CLI entry point, VM init, DoE mode dispatch.
  • vm.c — interpreter loop, stacks, dictionary state (the central runtime file).
  • vm_api.c — external VM API implementation.
  • vm_bootstrap.c — VM bootstrap initialization.
  • vm_debug.c — debugging utilities.
  • vm_time.c — time-related VM operations.
  • vm_internal.h — internal-only declarations shared across the vm_*.c files, not part of the public include/vm_api.h surface.
  • repl.c — REPL read-eval-print loop.
  • cli.c — CLI argument parsing.
  • io.c — I/O operations.
  • log.c — logging infrastructure.

Memory / dictionary / blocks

  • memory_management.c — dictionary allocator.
  • dictionary_management.c — dictionary allocation and search.
  • dictionary_heat_optimization.c — Loop #1 execution-heat tracking.
  • word_registry.c — word registration system.
  • block_subsystem.c — logical→physical block mapper.
  • blkio_file.c, blkio_ram.c, blkio_factory.c — block I/O backends (file-backed, RAM-backed) and the factory that selects between them.
  • stack_management.c — stack operations.

Physics-driven adaptive runtime (7 feedback loops)

  • physics_runtime.c — main physics coordinator.
  • physics_hotwords_cache.c — Loop #1 hot-words caching.
  • physics_metadata.c — per-word metadata tracking.
  • physics_pipelining_metrics.c — Loop #4 word-transition prediction.
  • physics_execution_hooks.c — execution instrumentation.
  • rolling_window_of_truth.c — Loop #2 circular execution-history buffer.
  • inference_engine.c — Loops #5/#6, statistical inference (window-width, decay-slope).
  • ssm_jacquard.c — L8 Jacquard steady-state mode selector; consumes compudynamics.c for tuning-word/config lookups.
  • compudynamics.c — generic compudynamics module (cd_tuning_word(), cd_tuning_vm()); the score/UCB/reward/weight constants for the L8 adaptive table live here, not in ssm_jacquard.c.
  • heartbeat_export.c — heartbeat metrics export (CSV export function itself not yet implemented — see docs/working/architecture/heartbeat_csv_export.md).

Math / measurement

  • math_portable.c — portable math functions.
  • profiler.c — performance profiling.
  • doe_metrics.c — Design of Experiments metrics (2^7 factorial).

Any .bak file alongside a .c file here (doe_metrics.c.bak, inference_engine.c.bak, vm.c.bak) is a pre-edit backup left by a past maintenance script (see scripts/remove_loop_conditionals.sh), not a build input.
