If you check the current pdd21, the global variable opcodes are now: {get,set}_global {get,set}_hll_global {get,set}_root_global
These opcodes are now available. (Don't forget to 'make realclean'.) The old {fetch,store}_global are soon to meet an abrupt, if honored, end. Convert when convenient, but don't tarry. Share & Enjoy! -- Chip Salzenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
