SET global variables) Message-ID: <3850@darkstar.ucsc.edu> Date: 28 May 90 20:55:39 GMT References: <3707@darkstar.ucsc.edu> <1266@urbana.mcd.mot.com> <3821@darkstar.ucsc.edu> Sender: usenet@darkstar.ucsc.edu Reply-To: sirkm@ssyx.ucsc.edu (Greg Anderson) Organization: UC Santa Cruz; Division of Social Sciences Lines: 14 Whoops, I made a typo! I just re-read my title that claimed that XCMD's cannot set global variables. As I said in the text of my last message, that's WRONG; global variables can be examined and changed if they exist prior to the invokation of the XCMD. I just typed the wrong word into my title. My appologies for the confusion. ___\ /___ Greg Anderson ___\ /___ \ \ / / Social Sciences Computing \ \ / / \ /\/\ / University of California, Santa Cruz \ /\/\ / \/ \/ sirkm@ssyx.ucsc.edu \/ \/
