Quartus Forth - Since 1997, Quartus Forth is the original on-board ISO/ANSI Standard Forth compiler for Palm OS handheld computers. Quartus Forth is fast, and builds genuine native executables that need no 'run-time' libraries.
Forth is a perfect fit for the handheld screen, and Quartus Forth makes programming the Palm OS simple.
With Quartus Forth, you can:
* Write source code in the Memo Pad (or optionally in Doc-format files), and compile your code instantly into fast, genuine native-code Palm applications (PRCs) right on-board your Palm OS handheld device. Your apps are transferred to the desktop the next time you do a HotSync.
* Distribute (or sell- there are no restrictions) the apps you create with no run-time libraries needed, and no royalty fees.
* With the companion product Quartus RsrcEdit, produce apps with standard Palm GUI objects (menus, controls, lists, scroll bars, etc.)
* Interactively test and debug your apps using the Quartus Forth console.
* Use nearly 900 Palm OS system routines and over 6200 constants by name in your source code.
* See descriptive error text for Palm OS errors.
* Work in the language of your choice – compiler messages are available in a number different languages including German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Norwegian, Swedish, and Malay.
* Take advantage of Forth's full exception-handling and structured programming constructs to write clean, maintainable apps.
* Work with floating-point (two kinds: built-in, and IEEE double-precision with Mathlib), graphics, sound, and more!
