Subject: Which FORTH?

A simple question with many answers...  Of all the FORTHs around, which
are the good ones, and which are the ones best to stay away from.  My
indecision is due to the fact that

1.  There are many versions available
2.  The cost for a FORTH package varies from downright cheap to absurdly
    expensive

I am looking for a CP/M version with all the goodies (interpreter, 
compiler, decompiler, etc) which supports either the fig-FORTH or
FORTH-79 "standard" (??).  ROMmabe code and some sort of file handling
(via CP/M) would be highly desirable.

Any suggestions?
