Nice you got it working. By the way, is it OK in Forth world that after some user(beginner) triggered errors, to have not even the most basic operations work any longer? 5 dup * . 19 ok That's with the snapshot I just downloaded - I was consistently getting that until I restarted GForth. I am trying to get my head around Forth people point of view that crashes/access violation errors/lost work/errors like this? are ok when developing. But it's still hard to get used to it, given that the the tools that I am using for work, that pretty much never happens. It's hard not to feel like time has been turned back when immersing myself into Forth world...
