I did try to declare them, then put them down below with no success. I
take it that there just isn't a way to do it.


Died-in-the-wool *Pascal* programmers *expect* the procedure body to be
defined before it is used. Anything else is a habit gained from use of
other languages and is confusing unless used consistently. The true
intention of the 'forward' keyword was just to handle the exceptional case
of mutually recursive procedures (i.e. a calls b and b calls a).

1. I'm not a died in the wool Pascal programmer (you probably knew that).
2. Heck, all of my code is exceptional <g,d&r>
