Is anyone aware of a decent Forth which I could get to run under Microport System V/AT (286)? I've seen "cforth" but it is very incomplete and (even according to its author) not a fair reflection on forth. I'd prefer a PD product with source code available--I'm not likely to stick with this machine for more than another year or so. A *good* Forth written 90% in C with bottlenecks in assembly would be ideal and might make Forth a serious alternative to C under Unix. It seems like a project that someone at FIG would have undertaken already? It's even crossed my mind that it would be a good long-term project for me to get involved with if it hasn't already been done. I'm not that hot at Forth, though, and I've never written a real compiler/interpreter so I'd definitely be taking a dive into deep water. Has anyone else out there actually done their own implementation who might be interested in such a project? Please email me a copy of any responses as my normal machine doesn't currently get this group. ---- Steve Rudek ucbvax!ucdavis!csusac!tree!stever or pacbell!sactoh0!tree!stever -- ############################################################# # PRIVATE # Serving The State Capitol # # PARKING # Of California: sactoh0 # #############################################################
