Can you recommend a good (and short) >primer? If you are used to RPN (eg HP calculators), this isn't too difficult. "Starting Forth" is probably the best, but (AFAIK) it's out of print. (Though the follow-on - "Thinking Forth" - is now an open-source project at http://thinking-forth.sourceforge.net/). Neither of these count as "short" (though "Thinking Forth" makes interesting reading from a general software engineering perspective). There are a couple of primers/tutorials linked from http://ficl.sourceforge.net/links.html - though I haven't actually used any of these. -- Peter Jeremy
