Doug Hoffman <glidedog@gmail.com> writes: > ftp://ftp.taygeta.com/pub/forth/Archive/talk/sacred.txt Thanks, that's interesting. I guess besides the blocks/screens thing, I'm also wondering what it was like developing on those fairly limited systems. Today, we mostly use fancy coding environments on big computers, sometimes tethered to microcomputer targets. There's lots of resident Forths for microcomputers but I get the impression they are basically treated as toys. So I'm wondering what kinds of development techniques were used on the minicomputer Forths of yore, without window systems or process separation or much error checking in the Forth interpreter.
