   Yes, but I'm willing to change if necessary.
> 2. Do you use the MEMORY browser window?
  Never got used to it - still using DUMP and custom memory access to see data items at certain times while my windows application is running
> 3. Do you use BROWSER to examine wordlists?
   No still using WORDS and WH and my own custom REF which lists all words that use a word ( with a slight modification of your XREF words )
> 4. Do you use any of the auxillary color mappings in COLORS.F?
    No
> 5. Do you use the BOLD and BRIGHT colors in COLORS.F?
   No.
> 6. Please relate the 4 things you like the best about SwiftForth.
       LOCALS SWOOP Windows Multitasking Linux option is very good also.
> 7. Please relate the 4 things you dislike the most about SwiftForth.
       New update policy only lasting a few months, forces me to wait before updating until the system stabilizes more. I bought the first update 3.0.1 which had very few changes, my subscription ended at 3.0.4, so now I'm waiting.
Nothing else.
> 8. What features would you like to see?
     ActiveX
> 9. What features exist, but don't do what you need or expect?
      These seem to have been fixed by the last year of updates from the history of changes, but I'm not sure since I'm still waiting.
