 Gforth is a fast and portable implementation of the ANS Forth
-language. This represents the present state of the Gforth project
-whose goal is the development of a standard implementation model for
-ANS Forth. Gforth supports indirect threading on every machine
-supported by GCC, and direct threading on several popular
-architectures. Gforth is distributed under the GNU General Public

+features such as a powerful locals facility, and even has (the

+techniques: its inner innerpreter is indirect or direct threaded.
+Gforth is distributed under the GNU General Public license (see
+COPYING).

+Gforth runs under Unix and DOS and should not be hard to port to other
+systems supported by GCC. This version has been tested on Linux (for
+Intel), SunOS (SPARC), Ultrix (MIPS) before release.
