   Forth Interest Group sells a source listing for 8080 FIG Forth.
I spent about 3 days typing it in a few years ago; it used to be
stored online at MIT-MC.  These days you can get machine readible
copies at various prices from Mountain View Press.

   I found the 8080 listing fairly easy to work with.  I've adapted
it to run stand alone on my Heath 89 and use it to do remote terminal
emulation sorts of things.  The only problem with FIG's 8080 listing
is that the entire thing is in assembler, though many of the words
in it would have been easier to handle if coded in Forth.
