This is my attempt at a FORTH implementation in 8086 Assembler for
Microsoft DOS.



							HOW TO COMPILE

Run `make' on a UNIX host system with NASM installed.



							  HOW TO RUN

Run `make run' to start DOSBox automatically, or run FORTH.COM on a
real MS DOS machine or emulator.



							DOCUMENTATION

Please consult <WORDS.TXT> for a list of words and their use.
