Ms. Rather recommends *not* using an additional
variable because of the impact and/or insignificance.
Can't be done with less impact?

E.g., save LAST on stack when entering :NONAME,
update LAST to HERE (or appropriate value) for
use by RECURSE within :NONAME, then restore LAST
 from stack when exiting :NONAME.  Yes?

I decided to check to see where LAST is used
in my system in case adding LATESTXT or somesuch
would cause problems with other words. In my
system, it seems LAST is only used within words
that modify a dictionary header, except for
RECURSE.  That could also imply RECURSE shouldn't
be useable with :NONAME.

The words where I use LAST are IMMEDIATE SMUDGE
DOES> COLD WORDS (CREATE) and some custom words.
COLD just sets an initial value for LAST.  (CREATE)
and DOES> modify the header.  IMMEDIATE and SMUDGE
sets bits in the header.

WORDS uses LAST to find the last entry in the
dictionary chain.  It doesn't need to find :NONAMEs.

So, since :NONAME isn't supposed to have a header,
then none of those words should be used with :NONAME.
I.e., IMMEDIATE shouldn't be used with :NONAME since
it modifies a header.  Correct?

The question is whether it's legal for a :NONAME
definition be marked with IMMEDIATE in Forth?  Is
that valid?  If so, that's more indication that
a header is needed for :NONAME.

I hope the answer to that is: "No." since that would
begin to confuse me on things, again...  But, then
again, it seems odd to me that I couldn't mark a
:NONAME definition as IMMEDIATE.
