If you're getting a list of files from showdir(), you can use the separator character for convenience in parsing. Specify the separator as a string pattern with the PARSE instruction and the filenames will be split apart at the separators. The word functions only use spaces as separators, but it's easy to map a list of other separators to spaces with the translate function. ARexx update disks are still available to registered users, but note that the manual has not been revised. There's an update.doc file with cumulative changes on the disk. -Bill
