Hello Mark, Erich, AmForthers, I agreed with Mark's comment below

If the > refcard script were part of the hex build process then a custom > refcard could be a product of the build process also. For AVR8, the .lst file produced as part of the build process lists all the .asm files used in building the hex files. Modifying Mark's perl script from https://sourceforge.net/p/amforth/mailman/message/37060541/ so that it uses only the included files listed in the .lst file, a list of words with the their documentation fields can output. These are specific to the individual build, rather than to the general assembly source tree. Giving something like this (see end of message). As Mark pointed out >> There is still the issue of files that don't have the 3 lines at the top >> of stack effects, category and description. Making these (assembly) files compliant would require some coordinated effort - some of which has been already done I believe, but after that a build specific ref card documenting built-in words could just be another automated part of the hex build process. Not perhaps the perfect ref card - whatever that is, but achievable and with a clearly defined scope. Certainly something I would make use of. Best wishes, Tristan Edited example (text) output of the modified script for uno.lst ....
