 Subj: TOC OF NEW FORTH BOOK         Status: PUBLIC MESSAGE

 The address-book example is relatively complete, though it is limited to
 200 addresses (more than enough for most personal address books)--has a
 title screen and a menu from which the user can pick Add addresses;
 Review/revise addresses; Print address book; Exit to DOS.  As the book
 works through the development, I reveal the inner workings of design and
 development by describing the sorts of mistakes that I made in thinking
 about the program and warning the reader when some smooth and simple
 approach was actually the result of much thinking and some trial and
 error.  I hope the reader will feel able to tackle reasonably large
 projects without panic after working through this example.
