A view is a just SELECT statement that is stored. Nothing super about
it, except rbase opens it in a DATA BROWSER intead of at the rprompt.
Prolly doesn't take up more than 4 bytes of memory.

If I understand correctly a view is kind of a super select. If I look at
the definition fo a view it starts with SELECT so
I'm kind of right.
But the syntax must not be quite the same. If I go to the view designer
and copy the definition to the R: prompt;
I get various error messages.
This is really for my own education but how would I translate a view
into a command?
