Done, revision 10364. In response to your genetics comment (which I assume was it least partially tongue in cheek although I also have my troubles with C sometimes), have a look at src/plvpor.c where the meanings of the last argument to (c_)plenv (including the 70-73 values) are clearly documented. That's the source I used for the above revision to doc/docbook/src/api.xml. Our website documentation will be built from api.xml (and other files in that directory) as part of the release process. Until then, you will have to rely on api.xml or plvpor.c for documentation of plenv. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
