Subject: Forth manuals
Hi,
Having developed a bit of an interest in Forth lately, I was wondering -
does anyone have the manuals (or any other accompanying books) from any
BBC Forth implementations which they'd be willing to sell? The software
seems to be kicking around on the web but not the documentation.
I would particularly like to get hold of a copy of "Forth on the BBC
Microcomputer", which I believe was effectively the documentation for
Acornsoft's Forth. The BBC documentation project has a few scans but by
no means the complete version. (I e-mailed Mark Usher a while back and
he said that was all he had.)
Ideally I'd be paying about a fiver a book including postage, but I
guess we'll see what, if anything, comes up. I appreciate this is a bit
of a long shot, but it can't hurt to ask, can it?
Cheers.
Steve
