This is a perfect example of how to pull the rug from under our feet.
And what are we gonna do now? David is broke and stuck with a pickup
truck load of pens (well, the upside is that they should last him
through the object programming book). For the rest of us, what part of
the ever-lengthiest "top 10" thread has already been implemented? What I
wonder the most is, which of them have been part of IDL since 5.0 but
never made it to the documentation and we are not aware of them?.. Like
STRTOK routine that, according to wrapper routine STRSPLIT, supposed to
be documented? What else can STRTOK do through that _extra keyword?

Cheers,
Pavel

Indeed, now for once I had thought, I could really change the evolution
of mankind by participating in a grassroot campaign and sent a feature
request 10 minutes ago. Sorry, RSI! But maybe, they should lift the veil
a bit in advance and have the change log published on their web page in
regular intervals, so people could follow progress (and they wouldn't
even have to hire someone to follow up). If they think, it's too
embarassing; well then put it under some obscure address like
www.rsinc.com/support/contrib/declassified/boring/system_stu ff/old_changes/very_old_stuff/latest.html


Cheers,
Martin
