Hello,
FORTH is a language which integrates a very powerful compiler and an interpreter. It is this interpreter/compiler duality that we are going to use to measure the execution time of a few FORTH words.

Would it not be a fun bit, to have a wearable Forth?
How useful? Do not know and do not care, but would be fun. For about 30 Dollars.
And could probably connect to a wireless keyboard?

A micro-controller is intended to operate automatons. But before operating these machines, the applications must be developed. FORTH is a means to develop these applications, not a goal.
If I intervene here, it is to give ideas to those who are interested in this programming language.
I will kindly point out that on my pages, the FORTH code is syntactically highlighted and all documented words are one click away from online help to understand those words.
I made a previous post about this. I remember the link:
https://esp32.arduino-forth.com/article/highlightFORTHwithPHP
But this post elicited NO REACTION....
It's true that the rare codes on GITHUB are "take it in the face and manage!".
I want to get out of this system and offer simple, well-documented examples.. And especially that Peter FORTH stops systematically blocking me on FACEBOOK wherever he is moderator or administrator....
BR

This Mr. Minuth - one of the Forth Killers - has been rather quiet recently..
And the Forth facebook group where I mostly am, is controlled but open
https://www.facebook.com/groups/PROGRAMMINGFORTH/?multi_permalinks=2967881250178556&notif_id=1657530617866753&notif_t=feedback_reaction_generic&ref=notif

But you did not answer my question, if your Forth could be installed on this clock.
And how this has to be done.
And obviously an application on top of the Forth is required.
But this could start with a small one, just using the display
Another one that comes to mind is a TV remote control.
