 There are several ways to do what you want.  The easiest would probably
 be to use PROBE_HASH which is the building block for FIND, in other
 words FIND is defined along the lines of
   : FIND  BL WORD PROBE_HASH ;
 The second solution, which is more elegant, is to use the word FEED
 which is in the system exactly for this purpose.  You can look in
 ELECTIVE.SCR at the source code for INCLUDE and USING and BRUN/BGET to
 see how FEED is used.

 UR/FORTH 1.15 is based on Phar Lap DOS Extender 2.2D.  UR/FORTH 1.16
 (which is here on the BBS as an update in conference 4, and will begin
 shipping this week to new customers) is based on Phar Lap DOS Extender
 3.0 --- the current version of DOS Extender and the only one you can
 buy.  OK -- the Phar Lap stuff takes care of the assembler, linker, and
 DOS Extender, but you will also need a 32-bit C compiler that is
 compatible with Phar Lap.  I think both MetaWare and WatCom are
 compatible -- but you better call them to make sure before spending the
 money.
