This is a Gcc/Relocatable/fAst/Small/Portable Forth

graspForth is an attempt at a Forth-in-C that has the following goals:

  • GCC
    • to support all 32-bit micros that GCC cross-compiles to
  • Relocatable
    • to be able to run in-place in either Flash or Ram
  • Fast
    • to be "not much" slower than an assembly based native Forth
  • Small
    • to fit-in approx 300 words in less than 25Kbytes on a 32-bit machine
  • Portable
    • to achieve a 5 minute port to a new 32bit micro-processor, or micro-controller.
