Hi,

I've just compiled release 1.4 of amforth before the changelog
is getting too long ;=)

It contains a few new words..

abort" ( f -- ) prints the string and aborts if flag permits
unused ( -- n)  returns the number of unsed flash cells
                  (multiply with 2 and you get the number of
                   bytes)

.. some words changed ..

pad does no longer have it's own ram space. It is now located
at and above heap. please note, that word uses pad too.

case & co are now in an optional compile-time dictionary. This
dictionary is intended to be used for "bigger" atmegas and
contains some other words like d+ d- etc.

quit has some internal changes (see abort") and any thrown
exception will do abort too.

/mod is changed from usigned division to signed (symmetric)
/ and mod depend on it and have changed therefore too. The
old /mod may re-appear as u/mod in the optional dictionary
if needed.

serial flow control (xonxoff) still does not work, it is not
included in this release.



Have fun with it

Matthias
