I was working on better
explanation of get() and noticed: 1. get(0) and get(0,"") produce similar but not exactly the same output. If you try these 2 commands you will see: 1.1 get(0) does not sort its list, get(0,"") does. Not quite a bug, more an observation. 1.2 There is one property missing from the get(0) list: __myhandle__ . get(0,"__myhandle__") returns ans=0. And, of course, so does get(0,"__my") 1.3 "default" appears to be a special case. It is not in the property lists, and get(0,"def") gives: error: get: unknown root property def But, get(0, "default") returns: ans = { 0x0 struct array containing the fields: } ============================================= Should I try to explain this, or just pretend I did not notice? For now, I will write the description as if these minor items did not exist, i.e. I will say something like get(0) and get(0,"") both return lists of the properties for the root handle. Michael |
