Forth Inc. uses the .f suffix, Gforth uses .fs, and VFX Forth uses .fth.  
These are the three most popular Forth systems available that can easily

Yes, people frequently ask "where is Forth in use, and why don't I know 
about it".  Carrier IQ is a software, where you can answer both 
questions together ;-).
