[net.lang.forth] Threaded code and

schaefer@bgsuvax.UUCP (Stephen Schaefer) (06/25/86)

Every microprocessor I've ever met has an extremely fast, single
instruction threaded interpreter in hardware.  Unfortunately, the
designs of the systems built around them usually preempt it.  I wrote
a very nice Forth on my TRS-80 whose NEXT assembly code was spelled:

	RET

Of course, I had to turn off all the interupts....
