This is usenet. An answer is useless unless the question is
known.

An anecdote. In the 80's there was a Dutch initiative basicode to
distribute application on cassette tape. We made a Forth cassette tape
and we couldn't find applications to fill it, only tools.
To make it at least moderately interesting, Kees Moerman ported
a basic game that required not too much graphics, four in a row.

The sparsity of Forth applications is note worthy. Everybody
is building tools, or argue whether (bye) is worth standardizing,
adding "recognizers" to Forth's.

The words of prof Ting comes to mind, th 4 characters that end
"foot step in an empty valley".
