 In F-PC " text" is compiled at here and returns the address and length 
 of the string.  Even in the interpretative mode the string is still 
 compiled at here, therefore: 

         HERE " some text" COUNT TYPE 

 will display the string, but the dictionary pointer has been advanced 
 and the string is now a permanent part of the dictionary space.
