Re: List of variables within script?

["Jim Jones" <jjones@...>]

Luiz -

  I have implemented your solution outlined below, and it works well for the
most part.  What testing the robustness of the compiler checks, I noticed
that if I implement a code line such as

x = yyyy(z)

that it won't report to me that the function yyy is undefined.  Does the
compiler only check general syntax and not the functional dependencies?  Is
there any way to receive these additional error messages?

Thanks for all of your efforts.

Jim
