HELP Status: PUBLIC MESSAGE Gary, Thanks for your comments on Fifth---very interesting. It's also a coincidence that I just recently picked up PYGMY.ZIP from somewhere. At first glance Pygmy seemed to be awfully minimalist, but you make a very good argument for starting with something like that and working my way up. I'll break Pygmy out tomorrow and take it for a test drive. (I'd still like to take a look at F83 and Fifth, though, and any other versatile Forths out there.) ^*^ Cindy --- w SLMR 0.0a w Question Authority ~ TomCat! 2.0 w The .QWK Mail Door for Wildcat!
