- EC> Will we see you at Southern Ont. FIG on Sept. 19th?
-
- Probably not. Where is it being held?
-
- Forth is something that I just tinker in, for now (with Tom
- Almy's MS-DOS shareware FORTHCOM compiler).
-
- As a multi-language programmer, I'm always interested in adding
- a new tool. I'd like to determine if there may be
- circumstances where Forth would have a definite edge over other
- languages, or if it would be an environment that I'd prefer at
- times.
