    <p>I'm kind of where you are right now. I've been casually reading up on Forth for a while and also think it has a lot of potential--maybe for scripting too. However, I am nowhere near an authority, but here are my thoughts.</p> <p>First of all, Forth seems to be the ultimate programmable programming language--even more than lisp. To that end, I'm not sure how much C or assembly you'll need to code. I was leaning more towards developing vocabularies in Forth itself. After all, that's how it's supposed to be used.</p> <p>Second, of the implementations I've tried, I like Gforth and Pforth the best.</p> <p>Which ones are you using?</p> <p>Finally, here is a list of online forth reading I've discovered: <li><a href="http://www.forth.com/starting-forth/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Starting Forth</a></li> <li><a href="https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http://thinking-forth.sourceforge.net/thinking-forth-ans.pdf" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Thinking Forth</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.xs4all.nl/~thebeez/ForthPrimer/Forth_primer.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Forth Primer</a></li> <li><a href="http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ForthLanguage" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Forth Language</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.forth.org/tutorials.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Forth Tutorials</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.softsynth.com/pforth/pf_tut.php" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Pforth Tutorial</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/gforth/Docs-html/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Gforth Manual</a></li> <li><a href="http://galileo.phys.virginia.edu/classes/551.jvn.fall01/primer.htm#intro" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Begin Forth</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forth_%28programming_language%29" rel="nofollow noreferrer">WikiForth</a></li> <li><a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Forth_Lessons" rel="nofollow noreferrer">OLPC Forth</a></li> <li><a href="http://home.iae.nl/users/mhx/crenshaw/tiny.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Lets Build a Compiler</a></li> </p> <p>Have you found any others?</p>
