I would like to get a public domain Forth to use on my
NeXT computer.  I have heard rumors of Forth's written
in C, but all the PD Forth's that I seem to be able to find
are in assembly language for IBM PC's.  (Except for
a version called c-forth, dated 1985, which is an
implementation of fig-FORTH, except that the author
didn't implement <BUILDS...DOES> !)

If I could have my druthers I'd prefer a system that
used standard Unix files rather than blocks, but at
this point I won't refuse any suggestions.

Thanks in advance for any info.  Please respond by
email and I'll summarize in about a week (if I do
get any responses).
