Unforwarding cells
What is the proper way to make a cell stop forwarding to another cell?
I read from page 22 of volume 8:
To forward one arbitrary cell to another, given two locatives do
(sys:%p-store-tag-and-pointer locative1
sys:dtp-one-q-forward locative2)
This works fine, but there is no indication anywhere of how to make
locative1 not forward anymore. The following works, and provides error
checking if I try to read from the location without putting something
else there:
(sys:%p-store-tag-and-pointer locative1 sys:dtp-null 0)
Will this cause me grief later? Is there an official way to do this?
