More Power to Firmware

My original intent with More Power to Firmware was to put up some sample Forth code for doing graphics with mouse input in the Open Firmware implementation that Apple uses. I have included a discussion of the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI), broadening the document's scope.

Three complete (though prototypical) examples are included: Towers of Hanoi (textual) for EFI, Towers of Hanoi (graphical) for Open Firmware, and creation of a mouse-draggable window for Open Firmware.
