Hello, I'm looking for a Public Domain or shareware Forth that will run in 386 protected mode. Can anyone tell me where to find such a beast (preferably on the Internet, but I also have access to Compuserve, and other BBSs)? Also, any information on your experience (good or bad) with any of these packages would be greatly appreciated. The application is a 386 PC being used as an IP router. It runs a proprietary real-time executive, not DOS, so I'll have to port it. The software is written in C, but I hope to use the Forth as a monitoring and debugging tool. Unfortunately, this little project of mine has no official sanction from my management (so what else is new?). I'm hoping to demonstrate Forth's effectivness, and bring it into official use. Anything to get away from !@#%& C !!! Thanks in advance, Tom Bushell
