As far as a unified stack, I'm not sure what you mean. ForthScript
has both a data stack and a return stack.

[..]

But floating-point numbers are on the data stack, as 32-bit numbers.
IMHO, these are very unfortunate design decisions.

BTW, strange game player, Zillion :-) I tried it's chess, but it doesn't
even know when the game is over (I took its king after only 3 moves, but it
pretends not to notice).

Hmm... It's Chess is pretty strong, especially considering it's a general game playing
program. If you are able to make this happen again, please save the game (in a *.zsg file)
and send it to me. I can then post it and have the Chess Guru's examine it.

I only tried the Demo version and didn't realize the best it can do is play
'Loser Chess'. Apparently the rules are quite different. Probably a great
idea in the context of a demo for an extensible system.
