if only someone could build something like The Forth Deck around a dsPIC
or even a PIC32, to be really ambitious - which could support colorForth-style direct machine code compilation, even if the MIPS M4K is a less than ideal platform for extremely incremental compilation because of the branch delay slot, by compiling code into, and running it from, RAM on demand
something like the [Amethyst](
