Very cool, Daniel! I tried searching for some generic items that had been discussed in the mailing lists recently and got *no* hits. Is it because the search takes time to activate or is there a robot/spyder prohibition or something else? > You know? I'm feeling really pleased with my work.

Right now things are pretty much the generic completion which is not that helpful since if you are command completing in pdl2, you probably want to have a PDL command/method as your first choices... Another nice completion would be for documentation searches which is where a log/feedback of searches in the PDL docs would be *very* informative. --Chris _______________________________________________ Perldl mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/perldl
