I am looking for an implementation of Forth that runs under Unix, as well as one that runs under DOS. I am also looking for documentation to words that are already defined in the implementation. Can anyone out there _please_ tell me where/how I might find sucha thing? Thank you in advance. Greg Pasquariello att!picuxa!gpasq

I am also looking for documentation to words How about the C-Forth package that was posted some time ago? Has worked fine on Ultrix 2.2, UNIX V7, BSD4.{1,2}. I have not tried it on Yuck-DOS but I don't recall anything that would prevent it. If you cannot find it in one of the sources archives, let me know and we can work something out. D.

If you're talking about Alann Pratt's cforth, it requires that int's be twice as long as shorts and shorts are 16 bits. The notes with it claim you can go through and change int to long and short to int, but I've never tried it. I found my copy via ftp at uunet:/comp.sources.unix/volume1 John H.

Speaking of strange environments, anybody got any ideas about running
Forth in a VME processor under vXWorks (from Wind River Systems)?
The head honcho on my current project isn't what you would call a
real fan for Forth, but there are times when it sure would come
in handy.
Please reply by e-mail - I'll summarize.
