Perhaps it should be converted to C or assembly but there are good Forth
interpreters for the 6809.

There are even some free ones.

Here's one is by Lennart Benschop:

It says it's an emulator but if you open the package there's also a
Forth in there.

I think it's even ANS standard.

Also there's a 6809 Camelforth which is or is close to an ANS standard
Forth.

http://www.zetetics.com/camel/camel09.html (the link to the zip file
that is on this page has been broken for a little while, but Brad still
responds to requests for the stuff by email.

Forth is easily ported to a given OS. Somewhere nowhere near the top of
my project list is a native Forth ROM for the coco.
