Wasn't there a FIG FORTH for the '8? I could have sworn there was.
I started my own version for TSS/8, ~30 years ago, but never finished
it because my RS08 crapped out. Would have been nice to finish that.
12-bit only, though.

It's barely a start and it's a mess (I was just a kid). Definitely look
for FIG.
