EE Dept. Lines: 17 Everytime I start using JFORTH I always get excited about the features explained in the manual and then become dissappointed that it doesn't work. But now its getting ridiculous! Even the simple things that are explained in the manual don't work. Take for example C,. A primitive important to have in all FORTH standards. It does not exist! I had to go searching through several include files to find out where it was defined. Then I wrote a program that depended upon strings. Again not all string functions are there as documented in the manual. Does anyone know what files I should start including to have a COMPLETE JFORTH. I don't want to waste hours searching through a bunch of files for a word that doesn't exist yet is documented in the glossary. I also don't want a 1 Meg JFORTH program by including everything in sight. Also is there anyway of redirecting all JFORTH screen output to an AmigaDos device? Wilson Cheung
