We can select the console output, but it does not really work

Implement term-io-emit, as we have term-io-key to really
send characters to the output selected by stdout.

Patch looks basically fine to me, but this part is a little bit ugly: As
long as write-xt is 0, there won't be a way to print out any console
output. So between the point in time where term-io.fs is included (i.e.
tree.fs in OF.fs) and the point in time where "output" is called, there
won't be any console output anymore.
To fix this, use the trick that is already used in term-io-key:

  write-xt 0= IF [ ' emit behavior compile, ] THEN

And of course there should also be an "EXIT" before the "THEN" in this
case :-)

I did this in v2 of the patch, but Segher said:

But I don't know to have only "system emit".

Any advice?

I'm afraid to object Segher, but as far as I can see, this can not
happen. The "[ ' emit behavior compile, ]" happens *while* the Forth
word is compiled, and the first "' term-io-emit to emit" happens *after*
the Forth word is compiled. So how should the term-io-emit XT end up in
"emit" before the term-io-emit Forth word is compiled?

Since we're also using that logic in term-io-key and never encountered a
loop here so far, I think it's safe to go ahead and use this for
term-io-emit, too.

Exactly as you say for example: if it was done *before*.

This [ ... behavior ... ] stuff is very fragile.  It does not have
to be that way.

Why don't you set debug versions to the emit hook very early?  Why
won't that work?

My FORTH knowledge is not good enough to know how to do that...

Could you show me how to do that?

Just

' early-debug-emit IS emit

or similar.  If you get problems of not having defined things where you
want to first refer to them, you can always add a second hook (assign
one to the other, the same way you use with DEFER for other forward
declarations).  It is better to define things in a better order, of
course, but forward refs are handy sometimes.
