Gforth is a fast and portable implementation of the ANS Forth language. It works nicely with the Emacs editor, offers some nice features such as input completion and history and a powerful locals facility, and it even has (the beginnings of) a manual. Gforth employs traditional implementation techniques: its inner interpreter is indirect or direct threaded.
Gforth can be found on in the subdirectory /gnu/gforth/
on your favorite
GNU mirror. For other ways to
