Gforth consists of three parts: The engine (written in C and vmgen, which is translated into C using a Forth program) gives you almost 400 primitives (a lot, that's because writing primitives in C is easy, so many of them get written as primitive), the kernel, which is meta-compiled Forth, and a lot of tools and library stuff that is written in Forth and compiled on top of the kernel (normal compilation). Our plan is to move away from C, as the maintainers of GCC no longer think that they are providing a portable assembler. However, a future Gforth with its own native code generator will be a featureful system, too, and the compiler will not be too simple. It will compile a lot faster if you type in "make", though. All these desktop systems (Gforth, VFX, SwiftForth, bigForth) have more than 1000 words in the FORTH-WORDLIST. None of these desktop systems have the elegance of a small embedded Forth or figForth - higher performance, more tools, more functions all cost elegance. We have similar feature sets. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://bernd-paysan.de/
