I assume at some point I'll be able to write FORTH without stack annotations after every instruction, but its not today...

(Reminds me of how tricky it was to get used to parentheses in Lisps)

@pat eventually your brain can juggle a lot of stuff mentally, it just takes times :)

It seems like there is an element of coding-style involved too? A lot of the FORTH/Uxn code I've seen splits lines up quite deliberately, which I imagine helps the author understand what's going on

There's probably no "one-size-fits-all" style guide though?

@pat I use a auto-formatter for the uxn code, so it standardize how things look. This is the styleguide I use:

It helps a LOT with reading what's going on at a glance.
