I've been DYING for an alternative to BASIC that respects the 100's worldview (I LOVE this silly little machine!). Your rIOforth sounds like the best contender yet – when it's ready, you have one customer here. Your selfish pursuit of shelter, food, & sleep in the interim is not appreciated – but understood (indeed, I slept just a couple weeks ago myself!). Hard to judge the INTEREST out there, isn't it? Mike Weiblen, of course, is TCOMP's author, & I write (mainframe) compilers, so queries from US are expected – ANY new language would probably grab us. Then again, languages for the 100 are SO scarce (& recall all the recent vaporware C msgs!) that there MUST be exploitable potential here. Really hope you can tap it! – tim *** There is a reply: 85546 Enter command, N for next message or <ENTER> for menu:n
