Q: how do I inspect the source code of a word?
Q: If I were going to create a series of vocabularies based around text, is there hierarchy support? e.g. text.lorem, text.leetspeak, text.balanced
or should they have just underscores in their name? textlorem
A: there's hierarchy support. USE: foo.bar
loads foo/bar/bar.factor
Q: Say I have '5' on the stack, and I want to create a sequence { 1 x 3 } and place 5 where the x is, what's the best way to do this?
slava: 5 1 swap 3 3array
slava: or 5 :> x { 1 x 3 }
slava: prunedtree would suggest something like 5 1array { 1 } { 3 } surround [ ] map
