romforth is a dialect of Forth which is meant to be easily portable.

The IBM 1130 holds a special place in Forth history since it was one of the earliest systems on which Chuck Moore prototyped his initial versions of Forth.

I wanted to retrace Chuck Moore's footsteps as he created Forth on the IBM 1130 and decided to try porting romforth to the IBM 1130 (using the excellent SIMH/ibm1130 simulator available from https://github.com/open-simh/simh)
