"LIT-STRING" is a function word that pushes the char* and length n of +a subsequent inline string, then advances execution to continue after +the string. This is similar to LIT but for a block literal.

"S"" is an immediate function word that compiles the subseqent +characters up to terminating double-quote into the current definition, +preceded by a LIT-STRING cell, and the count of +bytes scanned. The inline text includes a terminating NUL character +which also is included in the inlined count.

+"TEMP" is a function word that "allocates" a TEMPSPACE +area of given size and returns its base address. The allocation is +temporary and only valid until there is a later allocation that +overruns this area.
Allocations are done in succession until the requested size overruns +the TEMPSPACE. If so, the allocation pointer is reset +and the space is allocated from start again. This is all intended for +small and short-lived data areas.

+"TEMPSPACE" is a variable word that holds three cells the for managing +"temporary memory":
+the size of the temporary memory space (default 104857600 bytes) +
++the base address for whole temporary memory area +
++the amount currently used +
+This memory is intended to be used by requesting snippets of memory in +a cyclic fashion via TEMP without concern about it possibly +overlapping a prior request.
