    Well, you're latest examples have clarified one aspect of Forth; it 
 lacks standardization of even the most basic control structure. To this 
 end it appears as though translation of existing code may not be too 
 easy to achieve as the looping control structures do not behave in a 
 regular and predictable mannor. Oh well.
