THE UNCANNY CAN-OPENER
If you enjoy controlling the inner workings of your
computer, you'll love MMSFORTH! It's the uncanny
can-opener that unleashes your computer with a total
software environment which can be directly accessed
from our high-level language, with no operating system.
This unusual language is usmartu yet very compact, is a
concurrent interpreter and compiler, and contains its
own resident, in-line assembler for fine-tuning to maximum hardware speed. Ashton-Tate's RapidFile, like so
many other professional solutions, is programmed in
MMSFORTH.
And for "outside jobs", MMS offers a wide variety of
high-level applications, most of which come complete
with MMSFORTH source code for custom mods. Such
as FORTHWRITE (which printed this), a lightningquick file manager, an expert system, a general ledger.
A sophisticated language, great support and, if you
thought DOS was the only way to see your computer,
some nifty surprises!
Personal licensing on IBM PC/XT/AT/PS2 or TRS-80
1/314 starts at $180. Please ask for our free brochure so
we can tell you more. And ask about our free offer of
