    For anyone interested here's an updated version that corrects some
    oversights. Also included is a buffered version that allows char I/O.

    Intended for DX-Forth, porting would require some changes. For the
    basic version that would be the ior error messages. For the buffered
    version I've used assembler (8080 and 8086). It comes with a doc
    which may help. Good luck!

    It's available at:

    File handling schemes are much like that for strings. One is never enough. Below is the shortest I've used that I'm not ashamed of and have dubbed it 'Quick Files'.
