Versions of FIGForth were available for quite a few processors.
I've got it running on simh emulating a PDP-11 and I'll copy it
to my Micro 11/73 as soon as I can persuade it to read floppys
written by putr. I'm running it under RT-11 but it can be compiled
to run stand-alone.
It's quite possible that FigUK may have a FIG listing in their library
and I've possibly got a TRS-80 version somewhere.

The future was never like this!
Cheating a bit, but how about FIGforth? I believe
it is truely public
domain, and as it runs on the bare metal, it could be claimed to include
the OS. I assume there was/is a version of the 8088.
Yes, but try and find it today. Fig forth is for the 8080 and 6502 with I/O
supplied by the user and ASM source. While I suspect you can get a
version for the 8088 I don't expect you can get the source for it.
Read keyboard, test keyboard ready, print to screen, read disk block,
write disk block I think is all that is needed.
