[comp.sys.atari.8bit] Public Domain Forth Compiler

jhs@MITRE-BEDFORD.ARPA.UUCP (06/08/87)

A friend out here, Eric Johansson, has recently released a preliminary version
of his Forth Target Compiler for the Atari 8-bitters.  As I understand it,
this compiler conforms pretty much to FIGFORTH except that it has extensions
to let you load the source from a file, save the compiled code to a file, and
I believe, do file I/O from within the executing program.

The source code is available, and anybody who wants to participate in
enhancing the current version is welcome to get in touch with Eric via
BBS at (617) 331-9640 or via voice at (617) 273-5500 (work number) or
(617) 667-0137.
