I'd really frown on OCONV(item,"A;1:' * ':2") if I saw it in code. What's wrong with: X=item<1>:"*":item<2> ? If you're into reverse polish notation I can understand how an F correlative might be appreciated there. And I can understand something like this: X = OCONV(item<2>,"A;N(VALUE)") If the dict item VALUE had some complex calculation that you didn't want to repeat in code. But without a reference to a file that's not going to work. But what do you get from a cryptic A-correlative that you don't get in equally concise and more readable BASIC syntax?
