ANS Forth compiler for the Sharp PC-E500

by Sébastien Furic

Sébastien Furic worked in developing a full ANS Forth compiler for the Sharp PC-E500 a few years ago (back in 2001-2003) and he was nice enough to send me (in September 2007) the source code and the materials to make it available here for everybody.

This page is just a repository for Sébastien's work, I did not participate in this development and I can hardly help anybody in using or enhancing this great Forth compiler as I do not know the PC-E500 well myself.

All information I have was kindly shared with Sébastien on my Pocket Computer forum:

• Thread #2 - Answer #4 (August 28th, 2002): Sébastien announces the development of this ANS Forth Compiler
• Thread #12 (September 18th, 2002): a rich exchange of e-mails between Claude and Sebastien. Sorry, they are both French, so the topic was written in French (please use an online translator for reading it)
• Thread #13 (September 18th, 2002): some more information
• Thread #391 (June 3rd, 2003): still some more information, in French
• Thread #1575 (September 1st, 2007): Sébastien is still alive!

Note: anybody having the knowledge and willing to help me enhance the repository web page for Sébastien's Forth compiler is more than welcome.
