   I don't think this -e behaviour is needed in an interpreted Forth.   
   You get the message right away anyhow.   
   For turnkey and scripts this behaviour is in fact the more useful.   
   ciforth does behave like this automatically.

   ~/PROJECT/ciforths/ciforth/TOOLS: lina -c gobeserk.frt   
   ~/PROJECT/ciforths/ciforth/TOOLS: gobeserk   
    ? ciforth ERROR # 19 : CONDITIONALS NOT PAIRED   
      
   ~/PROJECT/ciforths/ciforth/TOOLS: echo $?   
   19   
      
   So I saved the -e option meaning "load the electives screen".
