I believe Notepad and any other "linked" editor will both go to the correct
(or to-be-corrected) line after a compile error when the (undocumented?) G
command is invoked, thus making line numbers a little less important.

Speaking of documentation, I notice when I type "HELP G" from the command
line it looks for the now-absent help file and produces the Windows Help
missing file error box. I wonder if FORTH.HLP is coming back or should the
HELP word go away?
