I recently paid a visit to my local user group (Washington Apple Pi),
and I purchased several disks containing the FORTH language.  Eager
to unfathom the secrets of FORTH, I booted the disk containing the language.
Unfortunately, I was deposited in the monitor.  The disk could not be
"cataloged" nor could I get any information using ShrinkIt or my Systems
Utilities disk.  Upon examining the disk label, I noticed the disk was
using "DOS: FORTH".  I've heard of DOS 3.2, 3.3, PRODOS, and Pascal,
but FORTH?  Has anyone heard of or used FORTH DOS?  If so, where can
it be obtained?  Can it be used on a 128K //e?  Thanks in advance.
