I dont like the sign with decimal base too.
Is not that a sophistication now that should not be in a minimal core? Only on 
base 10 there is a sign!
I would prefer a . that outputs no sign at all. For all that need it, a word 
like

: sign dup 0 >if ;; then negate '- emit ;

can give the sign in situations where it is wanted.

-1 sign .

Bis dann,
