Forth Future
Added 31 Jul 2008
We are now in the cambric explosion of language evolution. Lots and
lots of programming languages, nice and ugly, are created out of the
dust. Many are short-lived, even the important ones ride on the waves
of fashion. We have languages with hard shells, without shells, mobile
and immobile. There's one little language with a backbone, but without
much flesh, that's Forth. If it will survive, and render flesh and
shells when necessary, it will take over the world. It might be
swallowed before that, but it has survived long enough to make this
unlikely.
