Being a neophyte to the world of embedded systems programming I am looking for information on FORTH engines and development boards/environments. I have seen the Novix and Sh-Boom engines mentioned in the ACM's SIGFORTH publication andI have also heard of Rockwell's line of FORTH engines. Can anyone help point me in the correct direction to information on the engines and development environments available? Also mentioned in SIGFORTH in the publication "Embedded Systems Programming", would anyone have an address? One last question, are there any other FORTH engines other than those I have already mentioned? Thanks, Ron

Embedded Systems Programming is a controlled circulation magazine for embedded systems programmers/managers (you fill out a question card and they send you a subscription for free). Embedded Systems Programming, 500 Howard St., San Francisco, CA 94105. (800) 950-0523. The November 1990 issue has an article by Jack Woehr listing Forth chips available including: Novix (no longer available), RTX2000, Zilog Super8, SC32, MISC, and ShBoom. There is also the F68HC11 which is a 68HC11 with Forth in on-chip ROM. A technical library will probably have the back issue (with a subscription order card in it).
