Hi Ken Thank you again for your systematic approach to making changes to the interpreter and how we enter commands. I do like the idea of named variables -- I've use a lot of #1000 = 12 or whatever. I don't see any problem with replacing the number part of the parameter call with a name.
#myloopincr = 12 or y#myloopincr Why do you feel that the named reference needs to be bracketed?
