#10698 — locals

Is there a good url or document someplace, that explains how locals are
usually implemented in Forth?  Not how to use them, but how the compiler
deals with them.  Thanks.

The paper about locals in Gforth contains a bit about implementation,
among other things:

Thanks, that is a good paper.  I'd like to find the DDJ paper that it
cites, whose author claims that using locals cut his debugging time in
half.
