- Before trying to scape up a working source for this Forth compiler for the
- IIGS, why not just try to keep GS16Forth II updated. The author put it
- into public domain earlier this summer and his latest version can be found
- on tybalt (though I think the manual files are still not there). This
- version was System 5.0.4 compatible and had a demo game (with source) of
- GO (not to mention that the whole desktop application came with documented
- source as well as tool calls.
-
- I'd be really interested in seeing a GS forth stay alive and up to date
- with system calls.
