DOS ain't dead

Shameless copy of https://comp.lang.forth.narkive.com/3sYURcTH/ann-dx-forth-4-62 and FILE_ID.DIZ:

DX-Forth is a Forth language compiler and development system for MS-DOS and CP/M-80 operating systems. It is intended to be a complete, easy to use, programming tool for the creation of turnkey applications.

Features include:

- ANS FORTH Standard (FORTH-94) *
- Fast direct-threaded code
- Generate turnkey applications without compiler overhead
- Fast floating point and trigonometric functions
- Forth-94 file I/O
- DOSLIB application library
- Multitasking
- ANS locals
- Overlays for large applications
- 8086/87 Forth assembler for CODE words
- Full source code included

* DX-FORTH 4 generally follows the FORTH-94 Standard but does not seek to be strictly compliant.
