[Flashforth-devel] Is */ missing from Flash forth 3.8 ?

[Simon B. <sim...@ho...>]

Hi,

I have just started with this on a PIC 18F2550 and found that */
seems to be missing. As this is a core part of Forth (I think), is
there a way to put it back in at that level? I know it is supposed
to use an intermediate double length result so replacing with * /
will not do the same.

Forth takes some getting used to ... :)

Any tips or short examples using CREATE and DOES> would be nice too :)

That is, longer examples than the usual CONSTANT example where DOES> @ ;
is used. I don't quite understand how the mechanism works yet.

Thanks,
Simon.
