I was wondering if there were any Public Domain/Inexpensive forth
systems distributed with source code for the 68000. I was thinking
about the possibilities of making such a beast run on the Macintosh.

With a fairly decent interface to the Toolbox I might add. -- Jordan K. Hubbard @ Genstar Rental Electronics.

Creative Solutions has "Mac-Forth" at ~$150 but if it's source ya want
then you might try Mountain View Press in Mountain View, CA. They have quite
a selection of Forth materials (books, source and object for many popular
processors and computers, and other goodies). Their # is (415) 961-4103.
They sell an installation manual for fig-FORTH for $15 and source listings for
the chip of your choice at $15 each.

You'll also have to have some obscure assembler to run it through in order to get your FORTH out of it, or type in the machine code... -- Keith Ericson at TekLabs (resident factious factotum) Tektronix, PO 500, MS 58-383 Beaverton OR 97077 (503)627-6042 uucp: [ucbvax|decvax|ihnp4|(and_many_others)]!tektronix!tekgvs!keithe CSnet: keithe@tek ARPAnet: keithe.tek@rand-relay

I have converted the Mountain View Listing for 68K FORTH to stardard Motorola assembler format - the interpreter seems to run fine. If anyone is interested in a listing, send me a note. Vince !ihnp4!uiucdcsb!guarna

If the source is not too long, please *mail* it too me. Perhaps there is enough interest to justify posting it on the net. ************************************* SNAP! ************************************ Gary W.

For some reason, I am receiving requests for 68000 FORTH. I am sorry for the confusion, but I do NOT have FORTH for the 68000. Someone else originally posted an item on source code for 68000 FORTH. Although I did not save my posting, I am sure that my news item was a request to that person to post the source on the net, if possible.
