   :It sounds like a nice little CP/M box with bank-switched memory
   :that can also run VALDOCS (whatever that is).

yes. shame about VALDOCS really. it seems to have killed forth's
reputation for all time. it was reputedly an integrated package written
in forth - unfortunately, it seems, the people who wrote it were less
than competent. for some reason it has an awful reputation, as slow,
buggy, etc.

never used or seen it - even in magazine reviews (not for the want of
trying either) - hence the vagueness. please, someone furnish further
details...? did epson ever release the source?

(hmm. other things written in forth were more successful - vp-planner
springs to mind, since it was so successful lotus killed it...)
