Not finding one, I just put one together for 7-bit US ASCII and tested it
this afternoon. If there is any interest, I could put an open source license
on it and publish it.

One of these days I'll get someone to pay me
to design a language that combines the best of Forth and C.
Then I'll be able to leap wide instruction sets with a single #ifdef,
run faster than a speeding infinite loop with a #define,
and stop all integer size bugs with my bare cast.
