So I set up a method on the construction of every Forth word to ensure that its behavior code is a compiled function. You can (almost) rely on COMPILE to to this: (compile nil <thing>) will returm either <thing> or an equivalent compiled function if <thing> is already compiled. It's allowed not to return the identical object, but copy it, hence 'almost' above. --tim _______________________________________________ Lisp Hug - the mailing list for LispWorks users [email protected] http://www.lispworks.com/support/lisp-hug.html
