Forth for Mac OS X Leopard (Intel) - what are the options?

by billclem@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 3, 2008 at 06:19 PM

Hi all,

I am interested in having a look at Forth but haven't been able to
find a Forth implementation that builds on an Intel Mac running
Leopard. I saw this thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.forth/browse_frm/thread/6e4f1008a11545bf#

However, it is focused on PPC Macs. I tried building both the CVS and
the version 0.6.2 tar ball versions of GForth without success. I
encountered a number of build errors; however, even if I was able to
get around those build errors, it appears that I need a previous
binary GForth on my machine in order to bootstrap the final portion of
the build.

So, a number of questions:

1. Has anyone been able to get GForth built on an Intel Mac running
Leopard? If so, could you please list what work-arounds you had to do
to get it to build.
2. Is there a different Forth that would be a better choice for
someone on an Intel Mac running Leopard? I tried a lot of different
google combinations but didn't find anything that specifically
indicated that it had been successfully built on an Intel Mac running
Leopard. Ideally, I don't want to have to install a macports or fink
Forth; however, if there aren't any other options and someone has
tried a macports/fink Forth and knows that it will work (I've
installed and uninstalled macports and fink on my Intel Mac as I've
had various problems with them under Leopard), then I'm willing to
give it a try if there isn't a better alternative available.

Again, I am a Forth noob, so feel free to point me to any FAQ or
document that I may have missed.

Thanks,
Bill Clementson
