In other words. The use of INCLUDE-FILE in the wild has never been
seen, except for a factor of INCLUDE.
If the ANS file words were modelled after an existing implementation it
might explain INCLUDE-FILE's presence in the Standard. When text-file
handling was added to DX-Forth I had an equivalent function. It was
necessarily a factor so as to be able to apply CATCH. Whether I was
influenced by ANS' INCLUDE-FILE I don't recall. All I know is I made
the factor headerless having apparently seen no further use for it.
