Re: [Amforth-devel] amforth - how to make him case insensitive

[pito <pi...@vo...>]

Matthias,
when you do insist on case sensitivness than do make the forth words
uppercase... There are tons of sw and libraries on the web you
cannot run easily as they are uppercase... Who actually needs case
sensitive forth?? PS: It is interesting how the creators of such
nice sw implementations do insist on something, which an average
user does not understand.. I've tried FlashForth recently (have a
look on it - a lot of ineresting features you may utilise), however
the creator does insist on FOR NEXT instead of DO LOOP. Frankly, I
do not understand that..Pito
