Sorry, Jeff, you can't. Best you can do is:
DICT GM.GMF TURNS
0001: I
0002: SUBR('*CALC.TURNS',SMF.LINK)
0003:
0004: TURNS
0005: 7R
0006: S
I've always considered it a serious shortcoming. Theoretically it ought
to be possible.
It was a shortcoming for Prime, but UV & UD have both perpetuated it.
(How about QM?) That suggests technical difficulties beyond my ken.
I'd like to hear guys like Clif Oliver, Glenn Herbert, Dave Meeks, &
Martin Phillips tell us their perspectives.

Is it possible to have an I descriptor which does a TRANS() to an I

For some reason mine wont compile.
Original I descriptor in file GM.SHF:
01 ED DICT GM.SHF TURNS
This is a Type "I" Descriptor last compiled on 07/14/09 at 08:49.
20 lines long.

Trans I descriptor in GM.GMF:

This Type "I" Descriptor must be compiled before use.
14 lines long.

0001: I

When I run a list statement:
>LIST GM.GMF TURNS
Compiling "TURNS".
TRANS ( GM.SHF , ( @ID : .1 ) , TURNS syntax error
I-descriptor "TURNS" was not compile
