Message-ID: <9001021453.AA18390@jade.berkeley.edu> Date: 30 Dec 89 23:05:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Reply-To: Forth Interest Group International List Organization: The Internet Lines: 21 Greetings... Can someone tell me if there is a way to selectively FORGET words, without affecting the following chain? In my version, many words are defined in a very inefficient manner, and I'd rather define them myself. The problem is, that they were defined very early, and most of the vocabulary sits above them. I am pretty sure that no other words use the ones I'd like to FORGET, (they mostly deal with reading joysticks, light pen, etc.). I am new to Forth, so my knowledge of the workings of the dictionary is rather limited. If what I am asking is possible, could someone mail me, or post the code to accomplish it..? Thanks! --- Jan (Yahn) Zawadzki INET: yahn@midget.towson.edu BITNET: s72uzaw @ TOWSONVX I did it ON a vax... :) --- H A P P Y N E W Y E A R !!!
