Message-ID: <390001@ui3.UUCP> Date: Mon, 8-Dec-86 05:39:43 EST Article-I.D.: ui3.390001 Posted: Mon Dec 8 05:39:43 1986 Date-Received: Mon, 15-Dec-86 23:38:50 EST Organization: MRC, University of Idaho Lines: 25 I have been searching for a good Forth. Have you investigated UZBForth or MultiForth? The ad for UZB (UBZ?) Forth has been absent for a while from AmigaWorld mag...maybe it vaporized. Speed is important to me, but since I am primarily a hobbiest, I want an easy-to-use system with low cost, no licenses for distributed turnkey applications, a good editor, ...stuff like that. I have been used to such things as Parsec Research's SuperForth 64 for the C64 computer. I'll probably be surprised at a 68000 version. I am new to the Amiga, owning one only for about a month now. Anyhow, does this JForth have a "remote" dictionary, to allow for smaller applications? Does the package include good source code for any Amiga- specific things such as graphics, Intuition interface, etc.? Is it a clean, elegant implementation? How about debugging tools? Does it include a decompiler word, for example. (That's not hard to write, though) Any more info would be appreciated. Write to me, Bob Dickow egg-id!ui3!dickow
