All,
FWIW: The full set for any specific version of ARS can be found by
looking that the C API header file:
ar.h for the values that look like "AR_KEYWORD_*".
Example: taken from the v6.3 ar.h file:
"
/* an additional AR_KEYWORD_NULL concept is mapped to AR_DATA_TYPE_NULL */
/* codes for keywords supported */
#define AR_KEYWORD_DEFAULT 0 /* admin defined default for the field */
#define AR_KEYWORD_USER 1 /* login name of the current user */
#define AR_KEYWORD_TIMESTAMP 2 /* current date/time */
#define AR_KEYWORD_TIME_ONLY 3 /* current time (date defaults to */
/* today) */
#define AR_KEYWORD_DATE_ONLY 4 /* current date (time defaults to */
... <snip> ...
#define AR_KEYWORD_GROUPIDS 40 /* group ids for groups current user */
/* is a member of */
#define AR_KEYWORD_NO 41 /* no more keywords !! Returns NO */
#define AR_MAX_KEYWORD_USED 41 /* set to code for "highest" keyword */
