I always assumed VSL was powerful enough, but a > little bit more power couldn't hurt ;) Also worth considering might be RPL . We still have RPL in V5 , and I'm sure you have the RS manual's documentation on RPL , and I remember you having some RPL knowledge as well . As I was saying recently , the "Eval" word in RPL , and all RPL's many boolean options might open up all kinds of elaborate programing that can be passed to the mesh , or maybe even into the VSL pipeline .
I spent a lot of time learning RPL for V3 but all of that is 99% useless now since V4 was rewritten from the ground up and its structure has changed completely. BTW yeah, 'Eval' was a powerful command!
Realman is a must however. (and based on C, less obscure although I like RPL's Reverse Polish Notation!)
