VFX Forth 64 is a single xt system (with sub-xts) . It manages to separate
compilation  and interpret actions for a word cleanly. S" is defined as below:

: S"            \ Comp: "ccc<quote>" -- ; Run: -- c-addr u      6.1.2165
\ *G Describe a string. Text is taken up to the next double-quote
\ ** character. The address and length of the string are returned.
  [char] " parse >syspad
;
ndcs: ( -- )  discard-sinline  compile (s") ",  ;

NDCS: describes the non-default compilation sematics of the word. The
process of arriving at this model is described in several recent EuroForth
papers.
