I believe that )tr was a "developer level command" (the command set allows various subsets of commands to be displayed so not all commands are available to everyone). During the march to code release to NAG we "hid" some commands. This one probably got hidden. Practically speaking all that means is that we took it off the command list but it can still be reached by typing: )lisp (|tr| fn) which is what we usually did. The correct behavior would be to recover these "hidden" commands and document them. t _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
