I would like to see a net.lang.forth (or .4th). I have just about decided to go ahead and buy a 4th ffor my Color Computer -- it seems to land in the right place between assembler and BASIC wrt speed & ease of use. PS--Why are the ELSE and THEN where they are in Forth? My understanding of Reverse Polish (I tried a few years ago to dessign an RPN-based programming language; a few months ago someone I told about this said "You mean like Forth?" that's why I'm here) says that these keywords should be reversed, which is also more intuitive. If you parsed the above, you can write 4th code -- mike k
