 There was no need in cmFORTH to compile colon or CODE definitions  across
screen boundaries, thus its THRU worked just fine. And, as Jan  Stout pointed
out, it is easily modified to allow compiling colon or  CODE words across
screen boundaries, if one's factoring is so poor (as  mine is on occasion)
that he needs that facility.
