." seems to fail
« on: December 16, 2004, 09:22:57 AM »

: abc ." try" ;
try"?

I see this with rf 7.5.1 on Linux and Windows. To be on the save side: what do I wrong?

Best Regards,

." isn't defined as a macro.

Try this:

Code:

macro
: ." " $, ['] type compile ;
forth
: foo ." test..." cr ;

I'll consider adding a ." macro in 7.6-beta2 if enough people want it...
