Yep.  I currently have a copy of Pygmy 1.2.  If I actually used it
(i.e. had the time to do *any* Forth programming) I'd send in the
registration fee.  If Pygmy dropped DOS file support I'd drop Pygmy like
a hot potato.  But I'm only one user.  I want to write code that I can
share with others (I'd use the ANSI proposed extended wordset for Files
built on top of Pygmy to write my application).
