I suggest you call the East Coast Forth Board (ECFB) at 703-442-8695 and look for the ff*.arc files. The ECFB is a very good source of pd and shareware forths for all machines from vaxen to c64s. as an extra bonus, the board is an invaluable source of forth information and opinion. you will find all kinds of forthers there ranging from the lean/controller oriented forth to the rich forth on a workstation crowd. a note about ff, it is a text file oriented forth that is friendly to dos. good luck. eric johansson ...!ima!wang7!ejohanss
