2022-02-19 02:45:47 I have RETRO 2022.1 built & running on an Ubuntu WSL on Windows 10 ... I'm not a very in-depth dev and don't even know Forth very well, but I think I know what I'm doing ... and I'm having some very strange and inconsistent behaviour when using simple string words, like s:replace-all.

2022-02-19 02:46:12 I don't even know how to describe that behaviour but I'd appreciate some pointers!

2022-02-19 04:10:14 Just tried the same the same thing on an OpenBSD 7.0 VM, with the latest 2022.7. The same behaviour - the replaced characters aren't the same each time, and aren't the ones I'd expect ...

2022-02-19 04:31:10 More interesting: when being run from a program, it seems to be reliable ...

2022-02-19 17:35:37 I’ll look into this

2022-02-19 17:54:15 I think there is an issue with s:tokenize-on-string; I will try to confirm this and fix it
