texte = These are some nice features. yay.Found one new bug in the docs, one need for a clarification, and one old omission:>[Grep]The [Grep] page currently contains the documentation for [CONVERTCHARS]. I know it doesn't take a genius to figure out what grep is for, but still...>[If] [Then] [Else]Wow, this is great. The amount of code this will save will be immense (same with [CASE]). However, some of the terminology should be explained in the docs: [If (([username]=Grant) | ([grandTotal]<100)) & ({[date]}<{2/15/2000})]I know that | means or and & means &, but are the quotes necessary for text strings ([username]=grant)? It would only take a sentence or two in the docs to explain this stuff. Thanks for putting in the [URL] tip at the bottom of that page.>Search: [Sum], [Min], [Max], [Avg]Nothing wrong with these (good idea, in fact), but the [SEARCH] doc is still missing startat in the optional parameter list. I think adding this might cut down on this question on the talk-list.Any chance of putting the reference as a stand-alone download? I imagine I'm not the only one who just wanted to see what's new before I commit to installation.What are the chances of having more, smaller features added to WebCat 4 (like my often-requested ability to specify creator/file-type in the [WRITEFILE] context)?Michael############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
