If you search on github there are several clones and indeed forks on JONESFORTH. It is public domain, so I welcome that:

There are also versions ported to several other architectures, which I occasionally announce on my blog (when people email me about it :-)

Thank you as JonesForth keeps getting hard to find. Any chance you will ever do an even more in-depth tutorial? Put it on lulu and I will buy. I'd like to write my own Forth, but need a bit more handholding.

If the tutorial is hard to find, please feel free to clone it on the git sites of your choice.

In depth: Likely not. I've actually been working on another literate language tutorial (completely unrelated to FORTH), so ... watch this space (or my blog).

Good advice...yea I remember you saying you weren't using Forth anymore a year ago. What new language are you looking at?

The new language is also a toy, but it's based on SML, Lisp and others.

Gotcha. I was originally assuming OCaml based off of your site.
