FWIW, for those who like Forth, there's a Forth implementation available as a run-time system on RSTS/E.   It's part of the unsupported stuff on V10.1 (and possibly somewhat earlier, maybe as early as V9.0, I forgot).   I did the port; I used it among other things for implementing an interactive crash dump analyzer *very* loosely modeled on VMS "SDA".

Speaking of Forth, there is also FiG-Forth. It runs under RSX, RT-11 and standalone. I would assume it should work fine under RSTS/E as well, based on that, but I don't know for sure.

Can be found on MIM::DU:[FORTH]

Forth.rts is based on Fig-Forth (1980 edition), with substantial changes.   

  Ha!   Our messages crossed in the ether! ;)
