2021-07-18 18:07:26 <crc         > note that this is purely an internal detail. Fetch -1 returns the number of items on the data stack, which I track using SP; this isn't required though

2021-07-18 20:40:21 <crc         > eli_oat: I replied to your question; check the logs for it
2021-07-18 20:40:31 <eli_oat     > thanks! will do crc
2021-07-18 20:42:33 <eli_oat     > awesome sauce! Thanks so much for this answer -- sorry I had to bail shortly after asking it! Kid 2 woke up from nap a wee bit earlier than anticipate which put the squash onto my writing any retro :P
