"Moore’s Law marches on, and more and more circuits are crowded into microcontrollers. In the last 15 years, I had programmed many ARM chips, and had watched with amazement the progress of the ARM chips. My approach had always been to port an eForth system onto the chips and tried to make the best use of the chips..."

The book Real Time Forth was written in 1993, and contains a vast amount of Forth code to go through and understand; and this gem has now been saved and made available as part of the Forth Bookshelf at https://www.amazon.co.uk/Juergen-Pintaske/e/B00N8HVEZM . The book is based on F-PC, a DOS based Forth, which was very much in use at the time ... take a look at http://www.forth.org/eforth.html, you find Public Domain Forths there, F-PC and Tings F-PC tutorials.

VCFe

Zum achtzehnten Mal kommt das Vintage Computerfestival Europe am Wochenende vom 29. April bis zum 1. Mai 2017 nach München. Ziel des Vintage Computer Festivals ist es den Erhalt und die Pflege 'historischer' Computer und anderer (E)DV Gerätschaften zu fördern, das Interesse in 'überflüssiger' Hard- und Software zu wecken und vor allem den Spaß daran auszuleben. Das VCF ist nicht nur im kalifornischen Silicon Valley ein regelmäßiges Ereignis sondern inzwischen auch ein fixer Punkt in den europäischen Terminplänen. Also lasst uns zurückkehren in die Guten Alten Tage, als Hacker noch keine Sicherheitsberater, Bytes noch keine Megabytes und Kleine Grüne Männchen noch Kleine Gruene Maennchen waren!

Forth wird dort auch zu finden sein. Carsten stellt seinen AMITARI aus, ein Amiga 600 mit Atari ST EmuTos. Dort laeuft auch das VolksForth in der Atari ST Version. Und den Forth-Benchmark-Wettbewerb gibt es auch wieder.
