I would like to port forth to a somewhat old machine for which I have seen no forth support. I would appreciate information on books and articles which would assist in this and a suggestion for an existing forth system for which the source is available (especially machine readable but I can live with a listing). The target machine is 16 bit words with 8 registers including 3 index, 1 return address, 1 top-of-stack/base-address, and 3 other accumulators. (I provide this for maximizing the closeness of architecture between the existing and target implementation). Thanks for any help. Jeff Sicherman jajz801@calstate.bitnet
