+A hobby Scheme interpreter for FORTH 83. Specifically it is targeted at
[forth.jl](http://github.com/tgvaughan/forth.jl) which is an implementation of
FORTH on top of [Julia](http://www.julialang.org), hence the name. It began
life as a fairly direct port of Peter Micheaux's [Bootstrap
Scheme](https://github.com/petermichaux/bootstrap-scheme) (as described in
[this wonderful series of blog
posts](http://peter.michaux.ca/articles/scheme-from-scratch-introduction)) from
-C to forth. In addition, this interpreter has a mark-sweep garbage collector.
-In future, I plan to also implement a macro system, file io, and a more

+In future, I plan to also implement a macro system and a more
complete numerical tower to bring it closer to
