'Z' is a fast pager for viewing text files on
IBM-compatible PCs. It is based
on the Unix 'less' utility. It has a least-recently-used cache system to
achieve high-speed scrolling, can handle enormous files, has a hex mode,
and can save bookmarks in an auxiliary file. Indispensible for anyone,
like me, who works with DOS on a less-than-mega machine!

Here is some Forth. There are two parts to this package: the binary of a Forth interpreter for PC (an old PD Forth modified and extended to make it useful on a modern PC), and the source of a complete Forth interpreter written in Forth, for CP/M !. Download 49k zip file.
And here is more Forth - a portable Forth written in C. This is completely original, and has been used on PC (in 16- and 32-bit forms) as well as Sun Sparc and 68340 embedded processor. Download 68k zip file.
