I am planning to learn Forth in the near future. Looking through the Simtel-20
archives, I see two major Forth programs for the IBM PC: 8086 Forth and
FIG Forth. Which is the better to learn? Which is better supported and/or
more flexible? I would appreciate hearing anyone's experiences with these
pieces of software. Thanks.
