08:44:55 <benny99> hm -- is the definition of 'listen' in the doc incorrect ? - there is no '#' word
10:26:37 <benny99> hm, 'here' returns the next available address on the heap - that means I could write a 'memory manager' on my own ?

10:59:13 <benny99> is it possible to 'tick a literal somehow' ?
10:59:37 <benny99> tick 5 <-- xt for pushing 5 on the stack
11:08:16 <benny99> if I could get accept to work
11:09:17 <benny99> (ah it does -- search does not exist ?)

16:43:18 <crc> 1) the definition of listen is actually written in the machine forth dialect, not the visible dictionary.
16:43:31 <crc> I should clarify this situation for 10.3
16:43:58 <crc> 2) ticking a number should always return 0 as numbers are not words
16:44:34 <crc> 3) accept takes a character code marking the end of the input, and reads input into tib. You can reference tib to get the contents
16:45:23 <crc> 4) 10.3 has 'find' which takes a string and returns a pointer to the dictionary header and a flag
16:45:57 <crc> if the word isn't found, the flag will be 0 and the dictionary header address should be discarded
16:46:10 <crc> (this is all for the logs since benny99 isn't here at the moment)
