But I figure that I've used up my quota for 2017 for complaining about the 4D language. So, now it's up to you ;--) I am with you on the lack of comprehensive documentation. That's pretty much inexcusable and definitely *not* industry standard. Deep, detailed technical docs are the baseline for anything to do with coding these days. Bar. Not.
