What is F-PC you may ask. F-PC is a Forth system optimized for the
IBM-PC, XT & AT machines. F-PC can use all of your machines memory for
programs and data. F-PC uses stream (text) files for its source, and
includes a built-in WordStar-like text editor with pull down menus. Many
tools are provided to make writing programs with F-PC fun and efficient.
A very good Laser printed users manual is available for a small
additional cost from OFFETTE ENTERPRISES. F-PC is a public domain
package.
FPC 3.55 is a minor bugfix update to fpc 3.50. Most of the known bugs
have been fixed, and very little else has been done.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF MEGABYTES OF FREE SPACE ON YOUR HARD DISK,
type the following command and follow the instructions:
A:INSTALL
INSTALL will ask you where to install F-PC. A directory will then be
created to hold the F-PC files. If this bothers you, read INSTALL.TXT.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
