Is there any online documentation for ChipForth? I don't see any
mention of it in the Polyforth manual that was on the Green Arrays web
site a while back. I don't know if it was a regular part of Polyforth.

Meanwhile, if anyone is interested, I just noticed that greenarrays.com
itself now reports:

Latest developments: As of 1 May 2024, we have completed the process
of moving our headquarters offices and lab from Cheyenne, Wyoming,
to rural Northern Missouri. This is a particularly healthy part of
the United States, in which we may operate more sustainably than is
possible in a city such as even Cheyenne whose increasing
urbanization and expansion seem to proceed without regard for the
quality of life conducive to balanced, creative thinking. One
exciting aspect of our new location is that we anticipate meeting
many youngsters who would like to learn how to design and program
chips such as ours without having to leave the pleasant environments
in which they were raised. Relatively minor hiccups are likely as
our facilities and processes adjust, but the website is up again and
we are ready to resume taking orders and delivering products. None
of our contact information has changed other than the physical
address of headquarters.

No personal experience but googling suggests ChipForth was an xcompiler
application built from PolyForth. There were two offerings - Forth Inc's
and COMSOL's (UK). Presumably the latter had some deal with Forth Inc.
I imagine ChipForth would have been sold as a separate product - same as
SwiftX is sold separately from SwiftForth.

At least greenarrays is still alive.
No news about (probably non-existent) accomplishments.
