Word is an internal call, it's a function, but the key is that the parameters and local variables are on the data stack and are separate from the return stack. I can call many levels without touching the data stack! Impossible in other languages. However, this does require practice and a change of mindset. At runtime, the dictionary doesn't exist, and under certain conditions and with the correct compiler, the stack doesn't either; it's converted into registers.

r3forth is case insensitive

Ah, it might be nice to mention that before the first code example, then. Or just use consistent case in the first example, to avoid distracting people with details that aren't the thing you're trying to demonstrate.

not for now, just launch many instances!

Andreas Spiess the ESP32 world expert and Brad Rodriguez the Camel Forth expert will present in our meeting. You will have the chance to make questions and chat with them and our experienced Forth group.
