I do not see any diffference between 1 and 2. What you want inizialize?
Again: try the modified version at the end of this message.
I have another little question (the last, don't worry):
Why you skip set-word!, set-word are not permitted in spec of func so the
creation of code naturally fail when you go and create the final function.
