Hi Jeff,
We've seen this same exact crash on the build farm before, while
running benchmarks. It is interesting that the help browser triggers
it too. I'll try and play around with the help browser to see if I can
trigger it. Do you think you can narrow down a more specific series of
steps?

Here it is used to provide different implementations of a word

For what it's worth, I've not had the bug, but I usually browse over the
internet docs. I like having multiple tabs open as I explore laterally.
And, my mac doesn't seem to slow down using help, but my xp has for the
last 8 months over multiple versions.

While we're talking about what perfect looks like, I would have benefited
more from actual examples. At some point we have to step up to the plate,
and I've had that on my list as something I could contribute. But I'm
having too much fun programming my new factor project! Make factor less

It is slow after a fresh install.
The browser appears to do some kind of caching, so going to some pages
is only slow the first time.
Unfortunately, this caching seems to be lost upon restart.

Adding to these suggestions, I find the language reference with respect

I don't understand what ..a represents.
I have seen ( title/attributes -- ), and don't know if the / has

The handbook seems indeed like what I need. I'll probably create an updated
version of it from sections of the help.

A responder is any tuple that implements the call-responder* generic word.

Somehow I'm missing context. When/where did you see run-fac? I just tried

Hi,
I really hope you won't find my feedback egocentric, I simply state my opinion

A couple quick bugs in bignum-to-float division I found:
- bignum/f rounds toward zero, when it should respect the floating point
rounding mode, or at least round to nearest. An easy test case is to divide a
bignum with more than 53 significant bits by 1:
