 UR/Abundance is in public domain, however it requires UR/Forth 1.1 .

 To use UR/Abundance you have to recompile your UR/Forth 1.1 nucleus
 using the modified START word provided with UR/Abundance. Then you
 can compile UR/Abundance using your slightly modified UR/Forth 1.1.

 By all means up load to BC-Forth.


 Current Bug list:

 1.  ABUN.SCR    Screen # 70
     Items in QuanStructure MenuCtrl should be defined in A instead of
     D segment, see QuanStructures defined in Screens 68, 69, & 71.

 2.  ABASM.SCR   Screen # 142
     NUMLENGTH had problems when F>D results in out of range. Following
     is a temporary fix.
     : NUMLENGTH
          AS0@ V-Low G@L>D DABS  AS0@ V-High G@L>D DABS  2DUP D0<
          IF    4DROP
          ELSE  DMAX DLOG
          THEN  DUP V-#Decimal -  1-  3 / +
          AS0@ V-Low G@L>D  D0<
          IF    1+
          THEN  V-#Decimal
          IF    1+
          THEN  DUP IS WIDTH  IS V-KeyLength  ;

 3.  ABASM.SCR   Screen # 152
     Remove 4th line of word Y/N, ( V-ITEM V-Length ERASEL )
     <<<DEFINEd items must be initialized after their memory is
 allocated.
     They can no longer be initialized by the defining word.
