[Coco] [CoCo] More Progress with Color Forth

[Stephen Pereira]

Thanks very much for the pointer, Bill!  Greatly appreciated.

You may have already seen by my previous reply that I also found the entire archive online at:

https://ia801507.us.archive.org/isoview.php?iso=/22/items/cdrom-coco-archive/coco_archive.iso <https://ia801507.us.archive.org/isoview.php?iso=/22/items/cdrom-coco-archive/coco_archive.iso>

Anyway, thanks very much for your attention!

Stephen Fisher seems to have some fear of large files like CD iso's or VHD files.. must have a small HD (??) He also seems to have a fear of direct links to things and keeps linking people to tandycoco.com <http://tandycoco.com/> which is about to disappear anyway. (Brian has given it up)
