HI Ralph,

not that I do not get the difference;-) However, I was not sure it would
*work*.

Best regards,

Hi Oliver,

I was not quite sure if I could abuse single-digit numbers in such a
way.
Single-digit strings.

Sure, it's not abuse.  It's the language.  Just as dc(1) allows a byte
as the name of a string.

     $ dc -e '6 7*s
     > cl

     42
     $

If you think it might clash with other uses of strings 0, 1, ... then
prefix their name.

     .ds lut0 0
     ...
     \[u216\*[lut\nn]]
