So you don't do anything to explicitly start your window application running?

The sequence of things to build a normal running SwiftForth application, documented
in the user manual, is

1. define your window and its behavior
2. define an application starting word which includes a message loop
3. define the startup vector using 'MAIN
4. save an executable

If you save an executable without declaring your own version of 'MAIN, you'll
get another swiftforth console window running.

Where do you do set up the stand-alone application? What do you initialize it to?
