	This is available for the Harris RTX 2000, Novix NC4000 series, and
perhaps other hardware such as MISC technologies. There are a number of
venders supporting these CPU's.

	I would specifically check with the following regarding "C" language
support on FORTH RISC machines.

Silicon Composers
210 California Ave., Suite K
Palo Alto, CA  94306
(415) 322-8763

Harris Semiconductor
2401 Palm Bay Road
Palm Bay, Florida  32905
(407) 724-7418

   Harris appears to be very committed to supporting the RTX product
line.
   The following company sells a NuBus Novix card and is planning an
RTX NuBus card for 1 qtr 89 (?).

CPSA
166 So. J St.

   I do not represent the interest of any above mentioned group :-)
