Interpretation:
Interpretation semantics for this word are undefined.

Compilation:
( "<spaces>name" -- )

Skip leading space delimiters. Parse name delimited by a space. Find name. Append the run-time semantics given below to the current definition.

An ambiguous condition exists if name is not found.

Run-time:
( -- xt )

Place name's execution token xt on the stack. The execution token returned by the compiled phrase "['] X" is the same value returned by "' X" outside of compilation state.

Rationale:
Typical use: : X ... ['] name ... ;

See: A.6.1.1550 FIND.
