Re: [Amforth-devel] words: tuck/under etc

Hi Michael,

Yes, thanks for the explaination on how the "]" word was working in this
code, it all makes sense now .... I have to get my head around what is
happening at compile time and run time with the create/does> words ....

By the way everyone, on writing this code and laying out some large FSM
tables to use in anger ... I have come across what I think is a bug. When
the lines get longer than 80 characters the interpreter does not accept
input and misses some of my table .... with modern editors having a much
wider column width this is a severe limitation in writing descriptive FSM's
as I like to have the "action" word and the "state" word fairly discriptive
..., with the width only 80 wide I am limited to names only 3/4 characters
or so with 5 inputs wide for example ..

I don't know if the limitation is in the pearl script  for sending to the
device, or in the actual interpreter .... must have a good look at both.

Cheers,
Bernard
