requestClarification - Behavior of `0 SPACES`

The specification for 6.1.2230 SPACES does not describe explicitly what to do if n is 0. Can we assume SPACES does nothing in this case?
Probably, this case should be specified explicitly.

requestClarification - The Standard page does not show Chapters 1-5

Hi Josef,

when you are in the Standard section of the website, you can see the chapters to the top left. If your browser-window is too slim, there is a hamburger-menu displayed which you can click to expand the chapter list. When you see neither the list nor the hamburger, maybe your add-block is overzealous?

Regards, Gerald

As I can see, the mentioned problem is about content/text. When you click on the menu item "Standard" at the top left, you open the web-page https://forth-standard.org/standard/words
And this web-page says:

Forth Standard

List of chapter 1-5

All Words: to Annex H

It looks like some relevant content should follow the header "List of chapter 1-5", but it's absent.

Also, it does not describe explicitly what to do if n is less than 0. Should it does nothing, or is it an ambiguous condition.

Can we use u instead of n in the specification?
