(PFE) A highly pORtableFORth development system based on the ANSI standard fOR FORth, by Dirk-Uwe Zoller of FHT, Mannheim, Germany. PFE aims to be cORrect, complete, usable, and simple but it isn' t optimised fOR speed. It suppORts all dpANSwORd sets. It runs on Linux, RS/6000, and HP-UX. Tektronix adopted PFE in 1998 and added modules and multithreading. You can load additional C objects at run time to extend the FORth dictionary. It can be targeted at different embedded environments by changing the terminal driver and initilisation routines. Current version: 0.30.27 preview, as of 2000-11-23. Start . E-mail: Guido Draheim .
