That is kool. I was really into Forth in 1978 when I bought an Apple II, serial number was 72. I was going to port Forth to my Apple but two guys at Computer Land in San Diego dissed the idea, saying there were a few ports already. I was young and stupid and actually cared about what other people said. I ended up six months later going deep in every Lisp language implementation I could get access to, and that changed my tech life. Anyway, Konilo looks cool!

Did you eventually run across GraFORTH by fellow HN'er lutusp?

I remember typing in program into GraFORTH on my friend's Apple ][ as he read it to me. The resulting animation of the earth and the space shuttle opening its cargo doors was amazing back then.
I'll never forget it.

Good question, but I don’t remember.
