Hi,

Well, at least I tried my best ;)
I summarized the status quo under
http://amforth.sourceforge.net/recipes/deferred-words.html

They are factors that are used by the respective defining
words. They should never be called directly (that they are exposed
under http://amforth.sourceforge.net/words/ is simply a bug
in the tool, that generates these pages..

No, deferred word were already created with the generic defer@/defer!/is
in mind. Only the defer itself is special (see recipe) It's all not
that simple..
