Hi Slava and friends

I am new to Factor and like the language and environment very much.  I started
playing with the Windows/x85 Factor 0.91 binary, running on WinXP Service Pack
2.0.

Today I pulled the latest source from the factor git repository and build the
winnt-x86-32 target and bootstrapped it with boot.x86.32.image, exactly as
described on the factor site.  The build and bootstrap processes completed
successfully.  When I run the IDE I see the following differences compared to
0.91

(a) Pressing RET in the listener causes the code to be evaluated, instead of
going to a new line, even if listener should still be waiting for more input
because of parser words being used.  Using Shift+RET allows you now to go to a
new line.  E.g. typing : add-two ( a b -- c ) RET, errors instead of inserting
a new line.  : add-two ( a b -- c ) Shift+RET + ; RET works correctly.

(b) When compiling a source file that contains TAB characters, I get a compiler
error:

Word not found in current vocabulary search path
"delegate" f
"name"     "\t0"

it would seem like TAB characters is not seen as whitespace.

It seems to me like these differences might be bugs.

Regards,

Leon van Dyk
