REFILL from a string will always fail Yes I knew that and shouldn't have included string there or in my later statement about tests. and source > will be an empty string. No, look at the specification of SOURCE. Anyway it wouldn't in the above definition because an exception would be thrown and the input source restored to whatever it was before the string was evaluated. For a block it will return the next block, > confusing as hell. Not only that but contrary to expectation it will > return 16 lines. So what, it is still the next block of text to be intepreted/compiled. Anyway I regard the use of blocks for source code as obsolete so I had no expectations about that. > > <SNIP> >> >>> >>> There is some lack of ANSI conformity here, but it amounts to missing >>> words. >> >> No, I think you are mis-interpreting what REFILL should do. > > I would rephrase it likes this.

Better to not define it all so that a user is immediately told during compilation that it isn't defined instead of something failing when it is executed. -- Gerry
