I've recently become a convert to Forth and have a few basic wonderings: 1) What is FIG's address and do they put out any sort of newsletter or rag? 2) Are they any Forth rags? 3) Are the FIG standards available via ftp anywhere? If not, how would I get a copy? While I have you on the line: I have an old Radio Shack Color COmputer 2 up in the attic. It's based on the 6809. Are there any forths out there I could get a hold of that would run under OS-9 on it? Advance thanx from an inquiring mind, John H.

FORTH Dimensions magazine is published 6 times a year by The Forth Interest Group P.O. Box 8231 San Jose, CA 95155 >2) Are they any Forth rags? Well, I have a JFAR T-shirt, if that's what you mean :-) Another Forth publication is The Journal of FORTH Application and Research 70 Elmwood Ave. Rochester, NY 14611 JFAR is very hibrow, but has become unreliable as to publishing dates. >3) Are the FIG standards available via ftp anywhere?

John you can download the file FORTH83.ARC from my BBS, of which you are already a member. {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} {} {} {} jax@well ."
