  Description     : A (mostly) ISO Forth interpreter and generic
  source system.

ciforth is a generic source system that can generate a number of
versions of Forth for Intel processors.

As long as your target is i86 based, you can pick your target to be:

	- 16, 32 or 64 bit

	- interfacing through BIOS, MSDOS INT 21, MSDOS DPMI, WIN32 dll,
	  Unix systemcalls (OSX, and LINUX) or dynamic (.so) libraries

	- can be assembled using masm, nasm, gas or fasm

The source library is Forth source. The generic documentation is
texinfo.

Releases are available for the three main OS'es: Linux, including
Android, Windows and OSX.
