-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RetroForth is a public domain Forth system modeled after CMForth,
ColorForth, eForth, and Pygmy. It uses some, but not all, of Chuck
Moore's newer ideas. The source code is clean, elegant, and
tiny. It's easy to learn, use, and port to new platforms.
