FWIW, I was using the 64bit binary tarball downloaded from
http://factorcode.org/
about #3: I waited more than 5 minutes, and with no new output, I
assumed it hanged... I'll try again eventually

It will probably solve problems 1, 2, 4.
If I remember correctly, I experienced problems 1 and 4 as well,
The using list is reset upon every run.
You should be able to ``USE: roman`` and watch it load and compile,
``save``, then restart Factor. When you ``USE: roman`` again it will only
add it to the using list, not compile again.
You can also check the vm and image paths with: ``USE: system vm``
The lack of tutorials for Factor is a major bugbear. I have found The Rosetta
Code site very useful because you can compare Factor code with a language you
already know for many different problems.
Chapter 4 of Thinking Forth is also useful because it has a lot of good advice
about factoring

What type of tutorials would you find useful?

I would initially like to see 2 tutorials: one which teaches the basics of
Factor in the manner of Learn you a Haskell for Great Good stressing the
functional programming paradigm. It should get a beginner to the point of being
able to think about problems in a functional way and compose
Hi, I tried to follow along the documentation, but I found some stumbling blocks
1- I tried to save an image with the regexp vocabulary already loaded,
like suggested here:
http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-cookbook-scripts.html
but when loading factor again, the vocabulary still has
