Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

AbleVM and Able Forth v3 Released
Along with the AbleVM and Able Forth, we also maintain several tools which are more widely applicable e.g. forth-scr and forth-img. Internally we use a number of other tools including a simple but I feel very effective Emacs scr-mode inspired by forth-scr, written /u/larsbrinkhoff. I haven't discussed this with Lars yet but I'm now not-so-secretly hoping we'll be ready to release it ;-).

AbleVM and Able Forth v2 Released
An almost completely rewritten forth-img tool provides greater flexibility and control.

AbleVM and Able Forth v2 Released
forth-scr now has a -d option, which prints a clear (dashed) dividing line between screens. Credit goes to Lars Brinkhoff for suggesting this feature and for his initial implementation.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing forth-img and forth-scr you can also consider the following projects:
libable - An efficient, portable and secure general-purpose virtual machine and virtual network as a library
able-forth - A Forth-like programming language that targets the AbleVM
able - An efficient, portable and secure general-purpose virtual machine and virtual network using libable
forth-imgld - A simple and flexible loader routine/script for working with Forth image files
