 > 79 and 83 specs available for downloading?

I haven't every seen the 79 standard in electronic format.  I don't even
remember seeing it in paper form.  However, here is what we have on GEnie for
the 83 standard:

  No. File Name      Type Address       YYMMDD    Bytes Accesses Lib
 1624 F83-PRN.ARC     X   ECFB          890318    75600      6    11
    Desc: Forth 83 Standard (printer format)
 1449 HELP-83.ARC     X   RJ Brown      890114    44100      8    10
    Desc: FORTH-83 Standard in BLOCKS
 1154 FORTH-83.ARC    X   ECFB          880821    73080     26     1
    Desc: FORTH-83 STANDARD

One or more of these might even already be available through OLIS or other
UseNet sources.  If not, your request might just make it happen.

[Yes, it is in OLIS, but OLIS is temporarily unavailable right now.
 If Thomas Rolfs sees this he might let you know.  If not, drop me a
 note at the address at the end of this message and I'll try to email
 you the Forth-83 standard.  -Dwp]

Also, as soon as BASIS 12 is available, we will be putting it up on the
network.  Stay tuned and we'll let you know when we have it.
