Open Source Forth Virtual Machine Software for Linux

Forth compiler written in MPL, Minimal Programming Language

The OS561 operating system based around FORTH/Java. The OS is to run on a VHDL chip OpenHardware design called the Minon, but could become available for other platforms. The unique point of the design is a revolutionary data compression technology.

likeForth started out as a weekend challenge and is now a digital schrebergarten to me. It is inspired by sectorForth and project-k.js, many thanks to the developers! Included is a rather simple interpreter and a Forth compiler, which give you an interactive development environment. It doesn't contain most Forth words but will be extended from time to time. I hope, likeForth could be somewhat useful and is therefore published under MIT licence. Many thanks to Leo Brodie for his book Thinking Forth and special thanks to Tom Campbell, the author of My Big TOE. Enjoy, be creative and engage! :)

A highly portable, Minimal ROM-able FORTH based on a small number of FORTH primitives.

OS for embedded and mobile devices based on tiny byte-code interpreter and FORTH language compiler (into platform-independent byte-code). In other word its smallest programming language realization works on any type computer with any OS
