Any chance that this is inspired by Forth?


Define "inspired". I became aware of Forth while implementing Elymas. But the decision to make it stack based was actually because I was too lazy (after some attempts) to implement a correct LALR-parser-generator.


If you want a more conventional syntax, I'd suggest trying with a recursive-descent/precedence-climbing parser.
