FWIW, for those who like Forth, there's a Forth implementation
available as a run-time system on RSTS/E. It's part of the
unsupported stuff on V10.1 (and possibly somewhat earlier, maybe as
early as V9.0, I forgot). I did the port; I used it among other
things for implementing an interactive crash dump analyzer *very*
loosely modeled on VMS "SDA".
I spent some time with that RTS just a few days ago! I didn't know
you did that port. Very nice! I just looked at the source, and there's
your name right at the top. :-)
I came to love Forth many years after I got out of RSTS/E. Having
gotten back into it a couple of years ago, and finding a Forth system
for it, was a really cool feeling. Life is good. :)
Is there a way to do FIP calls from that Forth implementation?
