Re: [Flashforth-devel] ff5.0 abort"

[Mikael N. <mik...@fl...>]

I did that to write
bl word find abort" ?"
instead of
bl word find 0= abort" ?"

There is also this case
2 1 3 within abort" ?"

It just seemed silly to put 0= in front of every abort".

Also I think it is more logical to abort on negative(= false) result.

But yes, it is not compatible with other forths.
