It was co-developed on ES Mainframe (IBM 360/370 compatible) under OS and CMS, SM-11420 (PDP-11 compatible) under Unix, and PC ES-1840 (IBM PC clone) under ms-dos making it operable under all current Soviet architectures. File Number: 2183 File Name: BBLX.ARC Address: GARY-S Description: Roedy Green's BBL as executible Keywords: BBL,executible,compiled,on,286 There is a lot of confusion about BBL, Roedy Green's public domain 32-bit Forth and Abundance, the Business support system that runs under BBL. Many think BBL is huge !!! - NOT true. Here is BBL in executible form, having been compiled on a 286 without a math co- processor. It extracts to 27065 bytes. By comparison F83Y bare bones kernel is 30080 bytes, eForth is 15104 bytes and Sergei Baranoff's Beta is 14998 bytes. There are no docs with this posting. They are available as file 2101 for BBL docs in MS Word format and 2102 for ASCII format. >>>>>> FIGGY BAR <<<<<< File Number: 2185 File Name: BAR080990.ARC Address: GARY-S Description: FIGGY BAR of 9 Aug 1990 - ARC'd Keywords: CONFERENCE,FIGGY,BAR,GENIE,PROMO,FREE,AREAS,RAGSDALE,HAYDON, EFORTH,FORTH vs C FIGGY BAR of 9 August 1990.
