     Gordon Hooton asked about the 68HC11 and Forths for it.

     Yes, the 'HC11's machine language is a superset of the 6801's _and_ of 
the 6800's.  So, I figure a figForth for the 6800 should work on the 'HC11, 
of course there would be some work involved.  Also, on GEnie and probably 
other BBSs by now, there should be a several files by Jack Brown and myself 
that have the source code for a Forth assembler for the 'HC11 that should  run
either on a PC or on an 'HC11 (producing 'HC11 code in either case, of 
course).  Let us know what you get and what you do with it, please.  I may  be
near the verge of actually wiring up my 'HC11 chip and finding out just  how
hard or easy it is to convert Pygmy to run on the 'HC11.
