If you want to learn Forth, make sure you get some Forth system for your
PC; it should help you a great deal, testing and debugging the programs
in a more comfortable environment before running them on your calc.
Crash proofness is some problem with buggy Forth programs...

It's all public domain, grab the whole package via HTTP (just uploaded):

http://user.cs.tu-berlin.de/~dvdkhlng/forth92.zip

I'll upload it to ticalc.org soon...

Please tell me if you think that something is missing from the ZIP; I
didn't test that "release" at all.

And greez to your housemate -- he seems to know a great deal about
Forth.  There are so few of us ;-).
