Yes! I did not have this in mind first. To call "later>" ")" has a lot of
evidence :)

But this will run into a tail recursion problem. Every ")" before ";" is not
needed and with tail recursion turned on it will cause bad behaviour. At the
time I called the word "later>", I did not see it as "ending tag". There was no
good reason to use "later>" directly before ";". For ")" there are good reasons
(like readability) to be used before ";".
So the word should also have a macro version that turns off tail recursion.
Bis dann,
