I thought the article was interesting but it seemed that the flow was
a bit off-kilter in that the second and third pages transition into
seemingly unrelated scopes (coding practices and debugging in general
on the second page when the heading seems to direct us to think in
terms of FORTH's performance and interactivity; we sink into network
chat and the usefulness of remote debugging and the related benefits
of interactivity when we seem to be directed, from what the heading
says, into a talk about documenting FORTH code as you go). It seems to
me that the "Modern Forth" context gets blurred out throughout the
articles while insufficiently explained projects, and how they relate
to the master topic of the section, are sprinkled throughout the
articles.
