      From: no.email@nospam.invalid              In Haskell, if you import packages X and Y, and X contains a symbol       "foo", you can refer to it as just "foo" or explicitly as X.foo.              If both X and Y contain foo, then saying just "foo" is ambiguous and the       compiler flags it as an error. You are required to say X.foo or Y.foo       to indicate which one you want.              Is there a simple way to do something like that in Forth, to get an       error or at least a warning, if the same symbol occurs in multiple       wordlists in the search order?              Thanks.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
