Hi,

Recently, a new open source Forth has been released the public domain. It is
been used to teach children from poor areas, the fundamentals of
programming. The system is tiny - the full distribution is a just 386kb zip
file

I was mostly impressed by the vector graphics editor that it includes (image
attached). It is used by the kids to draw their cartoon characters, but also
to define the fonts used by the system.

Cheers,
Francisco
