I think you are talking about GS16Forth. If so, it is great.

Better than Pascal or Fortran ;-)

It is excellant. You will need one or more books on Forth:

Title:	Starting Forth
Author:	Leo Brodie
Pub:	Prentice-Hall Software Series
ISBN:	0-13-843075-9

Title:	Thinking Forth
Author:	Leo Brodie
Pub:	Prentice-Hall Software Series
ISBN:	0-13-917568-7

Naturally the ISBN will be different if subsequent editions have been
issued. Also, others may recommend other titles.

Hope this helps,
