indeed.

However it shows up on:

put the functionNames into fld "fFUNX"

the problem concerns 2 word functions, commands, properties, and so on.


As far as the engine is concerned, there is no such thing as a two-word command (or function, property name, etc). The parser keys off the first word of the command.

The docs sometimes separate out different forms of a function for clarity. (For example, "answer" and "answer file" are very different, and there is almost no overlap in what has to be documented about them, so it would make no sense to dump both onto the same documentation page.) But convenience of looking things up in documentation doesn't affect what the engine sees as a command - and the commandNames reports on the engine's view of the matter. ;-)
