Sorry, I didn't mean to be.  Just terse.

Like you I wish there exist web versions of the kernel docs but as you
can see even the .pdf version dates back to 1995 which isn't exactly
current.  As far as the VA is concerned VistA M is Legacy and only
minimal resources are spent for it.

Subject: RE: [Hardhats-members] Where is %ZISH documented

As I read this message back, I think it sounds a bit harsh.

Fil, I really appreciate you finding the spot for me. 
I think I am wishing that I had one source where all the functions were
documented.  I really like the web version of the Fileman programmer's
manual.  I wish there was something like that for other functions.

Thanks again
Kevin
