language (PFE) A highly
portable Forth 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 dpANS word 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.
Latest version: 0.30.27 preview, as of 2000-11-23.
