Tom -

This really ought to work, even under Linux:
   2!:55 ''
where the argument to "2!:55" is an empty vector (two single-quotes).
Since I define "q" for myself, (i.e. it's not a standard verb) I'm not
surprised that that didn't work.

Since I usually use "2!:55" with an empty vector argument (''), does that
mean I'm not giving a return code?  Would that be like a "void" or "void *"
return in C?

Regards,

Devon
