Dr. C.H. Ting's October 1990 newsletter for his "Offete Enterprises" samizdat house (garage, actually) contains the following two items: 2104. eForth Model and 8086 Implementation, Bill Muench and C.H. Ting -- $25.00 >>>>> 2105. 8051 eForth, C. H. Ting -- $25.00 <<<<< "A small ROM based Forth system ... Source code is in MASM (!! -jax) ... IBM 5.25 disk ... With 8051 eForth Implementation Note." The address & phone is: Offete Enterprises, Inc. 1306 South "B" Street San Mateo, CA 94402 (415) 574-8250 Alternatively, EFORTH51.ZIP may be downloaded free of charge from the RealTime Control and Forth Board (RCFB), ( telephone number in the .signature below), or from the GEnie Forth Interest Group RoundTable (page 711). < Forth > \\\/// /// \\\ /// \\\ Elizabeth Rather posted to ForthNet that Forth, Inc. has an 8051 cross-development system, along with other Forth systems...

(my own company) Forth Inc. Microprocessor Engineering Mikrap and Forth Systeme (they sell a product called SwissForth which is different than the LMI cross-compiler, although they also sell LMI products) There is also a public domain Forth for the 8051 called EFORTH which is available on many bulletin boards, and a semi (?) public- domain Forth by Bill Payne that is documented in a recent book.
