Awesome! It seems like it should be pretty easy to make a FORTH machine
on a micro-controller. Perhaps some kind of embedded FORTH console for a
3d printer or something? I'm not really sure if that's something that
would be useful but it seems like a good application. It would make
interfacing with a device pretty simple but perhaps too simple...

Do you have any suggested reading material or any suggested programs
that are good for learning?

Lets hack on FORTH when we're both at 83c!

Best,
