All,

Last year (I think it was mid July) when JimTCL was originally being 
introduced to OpenOCD, we wanted to have some means to make the 
transition from "old commands to new commands" - work easily.

At the time we made a collective decision to handle errors like this: 

    Example command line:  "foo bar dog cat frog"
    First try the command "foo" -
    If that fails, insert an underline:  "foo_bar",
    I forget how "deep" we planned on inserting underlines.

The plan was - to *CONVERT* all commands to JIM commands over time.

It seems that decision UNDERLINE decsion is still causing much confusion 
today.  Case in point, the receint "ocd_mem2array()" problem

> ocd_mem2array dataval 32 [expr "0x54011000 + 0 * 4"] 1
> invalid command name "ocd_mem2array_dataval"


Perhaps - we should *REMOVE* this feature and *STOP* supporting this 
silent command transforming step.

Thoughts?

-Duane.
