yes, gforth seems to be well suited .
the two most importend targets for my work are Linux and MacOS.
And it would be nice if Windows was also possible.

yes.
what I want to put in this group. 64 Bit seems useful only for Data,
not for code. So what I would have a 64 Bit datapointer.
Dictionary and Code could still remain 32 Bit. But this may be is
