Yes! But first could you say more about it?

What I am looking for is a language that a) allows assembly language routines
for speed intensive and other stuff to be easily interfaced to
b) runs in Prodos
c) is realtivly fast
d) does not have a fixed memory map
e) does not require its own "shell", so it can be run on its own.

Even if your Forth does not pass all of these criteria, I would like to see
it, if only to see some compiler source code.

I really don't know that much about Forth, but My roomate has used it and
liked it, as I recall.
