Is it really harder to implement? We have a whole bunch of interactive control flow structures in Gforth, all with [] around their names. They would work just as well if they were "smart" IFs and THENs. IMHO, state+immediate was an ad hoc solution for this kind of problem, and it turned out to be a bit too simple, and even Chuck realized that. The next approach at solving this problems was cmForth with different vocabularies for compilation and interpretation, and it again is too simple. Your approach was dual-Xts for these special compilation semantics, and it had some similar deficits. The next approach is smart compile, and the only issue it has are compatibility problems with the state+immediate approach (it can't model the deficiencies, and for some applications, bugs are actually features ;-), so a Forth like VFX or Gforth 0.8 system needs to support both. Chucks pretty much sidestepped the problem in ColorForth, where the colors are the only tokens which parse, and everything else has a more passive role. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://bernd-paysan.de/
