Like you, I have a more bare-bones backup Forth CB: for when things aren't going well and I need some hard CB: answers (I use Pygmy). Hi Cindy, Our local Hub is having difficulties, so I don't think F83 is on its way. Perhaps you can find a copy on a local Forth board. In any case, I would still recommend this system as a good alternate. It has a lot more code examples, and is probably easier for a Forth newcomer. Pygmy still has *me* a little mystified, even with years of Forth experience.
