Maybe a confusion with this "since": ============= FSET fname(args) expr
Fname is the name of the function, and follows the convention for naming variables. Args is a comma-separated list of arguments, and expr is an expression. Args can be empty, in which case you define afunction taking no parameters. Here are some examples: FSET double(x) 2*x FSET yeardiff(date1, date2) year(date1) - year(date2) FSET since(x) ord(year(trigdate())-x) The last function is useful in birthday reminders. For example: REM 1 Nov +12 MSG Dean's [since(1984)] birthday is %b. Dean was born in 1984. The above example, on 1 November 1992, would print: Dean's 8th birthday is today. =============== ... just a thought.
