Good grief guys, Eric is going to go ape when he sees us writing code on
his Reflector now you want it to be perfect? It was supposed to be a
bumper sticker not an app ;)

Funny thing about Forth is it is very close to assembly language in speed
but writes like a high level language. Wonderful for bit banging and
writing AI code in the same robot. I used it for a number of robotic
projects in grad school. The very first OO language too. Methods and
data were in the same bag way back in 1980 when I started learning it.
Great for embedded stuff too. Fast prototyping and great results. You
can actually use the prototype unlike a certain Visual language I've used.
Kevin.
Forgive us Eric but we are zealots ;)

Forth and Love have the same address" which is of course not what's
intended. Anyway. neither of us defined 'Love'!
I don't think you could do that without changing it into something else
altogether. The whole thing about Forth is that everything is just a
bit pattern.
Right, it's required. It's been about 20 years since I last wrote a
Forth program!
It has not been that long for me thankfully. Only a year or so.
