Open Source Forth Software Development Software for Windows

Mecrisp - A family of optimising native code Forth implementations for MSP430, ARM Cortex M, RISC-V RV32IM(C), MIPS M4K and FPGAs.

4tH is a Forth compiler with a little difference. Instead of the standard Forth engine it features a conventional compiler. 4tH is a very small compiler that can create bytecode, C-embeddable bytecode, standalone executables, but also works fine as a scripting language. It supports about 95% of the ANS Forth CORE wordset and features conditional compilation, pipes, files, assertions, forward declarations, enumerations, structures, suspended execution, recursion, include files, etc. It comes with an RPN calculator, BASIC interpreter, line editor, preprocessor, compiler, decompiler, C-source generator, a virtual machine, and a multitasking environment.

Thinking Forth captures the philosophy of the language to show users how to write more readable, better maintainable applications. This project makes the book available in electronic form (LaTeX and PDF).

VolksForth is a 16bit Forth System with the goal to produce a manageable Forthsystem for computer systems with restricted system resources.

ANS Forth for Win32 and Linux/x86 (used to compile the following SF projects: acWEB, acFTP, acFreeProxy, acSMTP, Forth-Script)

Win32Forth is ANS compatible, Forth language application development system with many tools; Interactive console, integrated extensible debugger, a GUI file editor, hypertext rendering, hyperlinked source files. VIEW <word-name> to explore the many files

The Portable Forth Environment implements the ANSI Forth Standard, it is fully written in C, the newer version has a module concept, and it is fully multithreaded. Autoconf used. Tested in embedded environments.

MinForth V3.4 is a classic Forth system with command-line interface. Development resource requirements are minimal. A source text editor and a C compiler are sufficient. By design no toolchain is required to adapt or rebuild MinForth. A complete rebuild takes only few seconds. Current sources are for Windows and Linux (32-bit or 64-bit). MinForth primitive definitions are written in mixed Forth and C language and are transpiled to pure C code. Main but not exclusive application for the transpiler is to build the MinForth V3.4 high-level Forth compiler. MinForth V3.4 is widely conformant to the Forth-2012 draft standard and passes the usual test suites.

amforth is an extendable command interpreter running on AVR ATmega and TI MSP430 microcontrollers. The Risc-V and ARM architectures are ascending. Turnkey actions for IoT workloads are possible as well. The command language is close to the Forth 2012 standard.

colorForth is, in Chuck Moore's own words: "A dialect of Forth that uses color to replace punctuation. Includes its own operating system. Produces extremely compact programs. Instant compile from pre-parsed source."

Ficl is a lightweight, embeddable scripting language designed to be incorporated into other programs, including memory constrained embedded systems. Ficl conforms to the 1994 ANSI Standard for Forth, and provides several useful extensions including object oriented programming that can wrap compiled code and hardware interfaces. Unlike Lua or Python, Ficl acts as a component of your system - you feed it stuff to do, it does the stuff, and comes back to you for more. You can export compiled code to Ficl, execute Ficl code from your compiled code, or interact. Your choice. Ficl includes a simple but capable object model that can wrap existing data structures. Applications include scripting, hardware bring-up, rapid prototyping, and system extensions.

THE SOURCES HAS BEEN MOVED TO GITHUB https://github.com/josefpavlik/picoforth PicoForth is Forth compiler for PIC12 and PIC16 families. It is written in gForth and requires gpUtils. Produces hex file ready to be programmed into the device.

pFFh is a programming language that allows you to launch applications on embedded systems safely, quickly and comfortably. pFFh runs on the target system, combining operation as a command interpreter and code compiler. We can say that pFFh behaves like an operating system on the board under development. All pFFh needs is a serial or USB-serial channel to communicate, and through it, receive and process console commands, either from a keyboard or from files sent from a desktop computer. At present, pFFh is implemented for the PIC18FxxQ4x/Q7x family of microcontrollers. The code has been run and tested on the PIC18F16Q40, PIC18F16Q41, PIC18F57Q43 and PC18F56Q71 "Curiosity Nano” boards.

This project originally was about a megaman clone called "Game Developer Man". Game Developer Man, the game, has long since tanked. However this project has moved on to the KRGP.

A virtual machine providing a dynamic, portable assembler; JIT compilation; C bindings; and Forth semantics.

Tools to incrementally build customised Forth Virtual Machines for embedded applications. Token compiler converts token description into C code templates. PC console application includes FVM, it is used to compile and debug bytecodes for target FVM.

Forth interpreter done for .NET. Just a way to learn Forth, CIL and more C#.

F- is an ANSish Forth that uses a VM generator to compile Forth into C-based VM suitable for living in a C-based (or assembly or HDL) microcontroller project. The VM supplies 32-bit math, I/O, multitasking and debugger in a ROM footprint as small as 4kB.

Forpost is an embeddable, interpreted stack-based(Forth-like) language which has simple, compact and effective implementation in ANSI C. Main features: heterogeneous arrays, higher-order functions, program/data equivalence.

Libraries and frameworks for efficient and scalable concurrency in Forth.

GatewayMU* is the result of a combination of what several of my friends and myself desire of a MUCK/MUD/MUSH/MU* client, a fully customizable integrated development environment with MUF and MPI support by default, and many wizards.

Forth compiler written in MPL, Minimal Programming Language

The OS561 operating system based around FORTH/Java. The OS is to run on a VHDL chip OpenHardware design called the Minon, but could become available for other platforms. The unique point of the design is a revolutionary data compression technology.

OspreyForth is a personal project to make a customized Forth interpreter that can be used to create command-line scripts and general apps. It is currently capable of loading dynamic libraries and using external C code. In the future code that more directly attaches to the interpreter are planned so as to expand its abilities out-of-the-box.

Rainbow Forth is an implementation of the colorForth dialect of the Forth programming language designed to run under Linux or Windows.
