 Subj: DO LOOPS IN FORTH             Status: PUBLIC MESSAGE

 Yes, as a matter of fact, I did fail to notice any mention of the RTX 
 and cmForth in the discussion.  I do know that cmForth has a for/next, 
 but don't know how it works.  I did assume that Ian had gotten for/next 
 because it's a more common usage in other languages.  Anyway, no great 
 harm done, since after all do loop is in fact standard forth, and the 
 whole issue of loop limits on the stack instead of variables is crucial 
 to understanding what's going on in forth, right?  But thanks for 
 pointing out this crucial misunderstanding.
