        !            23: \ it takes the name of the doc-file to be generated.
        !            24: 
        !            25: \ the forth source must have the following format:
        !            26: \  .... name ( stack-effect ) \ wordset [pronounciation]
        !            27: \ \G description ...
        !            28: 
        !            29: \ The output is a Forth source file that looks like this:
        !            30: \ doc-entry name stack-effect ) wordset [pronountiation]

        !            33: \ (i.e., the entry is terminated by an empty line or the end-of-file)
        !            34: 
        !            35: \ this stuff uses the same mechanism as etags.fs, i.e., the
        !            36: \ documentation is generated during compilation using a deferred
        !            37: \ HEADER. It should be possible to use this togeter with etags.fs.
        !            38: 
        !            39: \ This is not very general. Input should come from stream files,
        !            40: \ otherwise the results are unpredictable. It also does not detect
        !            41: \ errors in the input (e.g., if there is something else on the
        !            42: \ definition line) and reacts strangely to them.
        !            43: 
        !            44: \ possible improvements: we could analyse the defining word and guess
        !            45: \ the stack effect. This would be handy for variables. Unfortunately,
        !            46: \ we have to look back in the input buffer; we cannot use the cfa
        !            47: \ because it does not exist when header is called.

        !            50: \ dependences: the variable LAST must contain a pointer to the last
        !            51: \ header, NAME>STRING must convert that pointer to a string, and
