- Here is a summary of how to get started with the MVPFORTH
- public domain program. Mountain View Press also publishes the book
- ALL ABOUT FORTH, by Glen Haydon.
-
- With MVPFORTH.COM in the default drive, type MVPFORTH to load
- the MVPFORTH operating system from DOS. Then typing VLIST will list
- the available MVPFORTH words ( FORTH-79 compatible ) and typing BYE
- will return DOS.
- If it is desired to have MVPFORTH loaded automatically upon
- power-on, use the RENAME command in DOS to change the name of MVPFORTH.
- COM to COMMAND.COM. In this case, the BYE word will reload MVPFORTH,
- rather than returning to DOS, unless the DOS COMMAND.COM file has been
- replaced in the default drive.

- ( An earlier file named MVPFORTH.EXE was distributed to some BBS's.
- The file MVPFORTH.COM, in addition to providing the auto-load option,
- also supplies the word BYE, which malfunctioned in the other program.
- There might be other changes I don't know about -- I obtained these
- files from Gene Plantz's BBS in Chicago.)
