When my family first bought a Mac 128 (back when that was the only Mac)
my uncle, a main-frame expert, gave me Forth level 1 from Creative
Solutions. Unfortunately I went to college before I could fully
learn how to use Forth on the mac. My sophomore year in college
I bought a Mac Plus, but I found that Forth level 1 did not run
on the Plus. I am eager to learn, however, if Forth Plus would
be recommendable to a beginning programmer like myself.

It's a threaded subroutine compiler (big, but fast) supporting double-clickable applications, multi-tasking (round-robin) etc. If you are subscribing to GEnie, check into the MACH2 roundtable.
