     I just realised to my embarassment that this is unduly complicated. Of   
   course the scanning is not required. All that is needed for iterator: is   
   simply:   
      
   : iterator:  ( "name" -- )   
       : ]] true begin [: [[   
      
      
   So scan-words and the first definition of ;iterator are not needed.
