I saw some
impressive Apple ][ FORTH demos in '86.
Been looking into that (now that I have the Internet). It's all stack
based and weird.
No wonder it's fast though...
Forth is definitely intimidating and one mistake dooms a whole program.
Things like Jonesforth really impress me though (I have a Jonesforth
implementation handwritten in PowerPC assembly language and it's neat).
