The Embeddable Forth Command Interpreter

The Embeddable Forth Command Interpreter is a Forth interpreter and compiler (the compiler part is optional) that was written specifically with the the intention in mind that it will be linked into much larger C programs to provide a command line for debugging, hardware bring up, testing, calibration / manufacturing support purposes.
