Yes, but on a desktop system, we actually have that memory. And time is even less important. This does it, by converting the list into an array and then stepping backwards through that array: Variable words[] : words ( -- ) [: words[] dup $[]# swap $[] ! true ;] context @ traverse-wordlist source nip 1+ words[] $@ bounds cell- swap cell- U-DO I @ .word cell -LOOP drop words[] $free ; Works in the current development system. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" net2o ID: kQusJzA;7*?t=uy@X}1GWr!+0qqp_Cn176t4(dQ* http://bernd-paysan.de/
