Pygmy Forth 1.3 Corrections     October 4, 1990

[I'm posting this for those that want to make the changes themselves.
 When these files are available on SIMTEL20, I'll post another note. -dwp]

     Three errors have now come to light (I found the 3rd one).  I am  re-
uploading the Pygmy Forth package to correct these: PYGMY13.ZIP.  I  am also
uploading a copy of this message as PYG13FIX.ZIP.  If you have  previously
downloaded the September 17, 1990 version (GEnie file #2202) there is no need
to download this corrected PYGMY13.ZIP.  Just edit in  the following changes:


Errors corrected since version 1.3 was originally released:

     1. The definition of (DO) on screen 171 was        : (DO)  OVER 1- POP
SWAP PUSH PUSH  -  1-  ;  should be  : (DO)  OVER 1- POP SWAP PUSH PUSH  -  ; 
this adjusts for the change to FOR NEXT.

     2. In definition of (BOOT on screen 79,  the word OPEN-FILES  should be
preceded by the word CLOSE-FILES.  This eliminates the  problem of needing all
the files open at the time you save an  executable image (e.g. SAVE
PYGMY3.COM).

     3. Definition of IN, on screen 115  was             EC  M9  IN, should be
E4  M9  IN,

     Note: I do not see why the #2 fix is needed.  This makes me  suspect
there may be another, underlying, bug.  If and when I discover it I'll post
the details.
