If I had thought you really wanted an answer...

For Forth, look at
http://www.idiom.com/free-compilers/ECATEGORY/Forthfam-1.html.  It's off
the list of free compilers - several of these forth compilers run on
Linux.  Specifically, gforth, put out by GNU/FSF, hosted at
prep.ai.mit.edu (Your backyard).  Note that the
http://www.idiom.com/free-compilers is a wonderful site for getting a
compiler for many different languages.

I do recall a VB for Unix named VBIX being advertised in the Linux Journal
a while ago.  For free stuff, look in freshmeat and you'll find
http://freshmeat.net/projects/vb2c/?highlight=Visual+Basic, the Visual
Basic to C converter.  I think there is another commercial one out there,
but I can't seem to recall it.

Hmm.  Depending on what sort of visual basic you want to do, PHP might run
it for you...
