No you are not ;) Around 1984 I used a MetaForth published by the chapter of the Dutch Forth Interest Group, to compile a subroutine threaded Forth on an Apple II. Plain machine code, a blasphemy at those times. But a lot of fun to do. After that I worked for a small Dutch company, which employed a few of the University of Utrecht group, who "invented" long name definitions support for Forth. That company did the OS in Forth for a Panasonic Hand Held computer.
