how do lispers see forth?

Well, we generally just open our eyes, and there's the world, right in
front of us.

I like this statement.

About a year ago I wrote a Forth/Postscript like interpreter in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) within MS Word. This took about
200 lines of VBA code - it was utterly easy. With this animal I can create complex reports without using MS COM (by executing
dynamic Forth like code within Word). Works fine in a production environment. Indeed I almost forgot about it (no service request
ever).

P.S. The Forth/postscript like code is generated by a lisp application of course :)
