That's not a bad suggestion, but it might not be trivial to implement.
Right now the "?" is an operator that is parsed like other operators
such as "+":  it becomes a function call . To have "??" mean something
special would mean changes to the parser, or a special case to the
.helpForCall function that the "?" function calls.

OK, I can see that. Adding another operator might be seen as too great a change to consider "trivial". But the second way (changing the function) seems a little "hacky" to me. Anyway, it is just a suggestion that would save me (and others) some typing time.


Thanks for replying to my original post,
