Ok, some more on this: I figured out why fixpath.fs didn't work: It expected
a gforth.fi to be present, which however is generated later...
I create a setup.exe from the snapshot, download from
http://bernd-paysan.de/gforth-0.7.9-20121007.exe
I removed all traces of gforth and used this new installer.
1. It still neglects to add gforth.exe to the Windows PATH environment variable.
2. The install scripts seem to work now.
3. But when I try to run hello.fs, I still get errors.
C:\>type hello.fs
#! /usr/bin/env gforth
.\" Hello World!\n"
bye
C:\>gforth hello.fs
