writeable icon problem #1

Hi Alban, I amnot sure if this is the prober way to report this (or the proper place) but when I try to enter text in a writable icon under wimpforth I get an error "ON_GAINCARET: not understood by class". This is riscos 5.28 running on a rpi4b. It could be related to the issue you corrected with carets earlier. I have played with win32forth in the past and would love to use this program, but can't do much with it at the moment. I should also say that I am new to Riscos as well. Thanks

I could provide a program skeleton if that would help.

Thanks, A small example would be very helpful if you have the time. No guarantees of course, happy to take a look in the next few days, it would be great if the Wimp features of WimpForth worked.

With respect to Riscos, this FORTH is not widely used. You will get excellent community support for BASIC and C from the ROOL forums.
