All the other experienced Forthers I know do the same. The beginners struggle way more, of course. If you need such a comment to write a word, you'll also need it to read and maintain it later, so it has to stay in place. Maybe when you get more experienced, you can remove overly verbose stack commenting. But if you have 20+ years of experience, any progress in your ability to deal with multi-line words is unlikely. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" net2o ID: kQusJzA;7*?t=uy@X}1GWr!+0qqp_Cn176t4(dQ* http://bernd-paysan.de/
