Small Error in Documentation for Pan X

In the help menu for the topic “Text Funnels” I think that there is a small error.

I am not sure if this is the right place to do this but Text Funnels always get my heart racing and I am in doubt that I am the only one that finds them challenging.

I owe this Group a lot.

I think so too.

It’s fine. There is, however, a way that you can submit this sort of change directly.

To be honest, I wouldn’t use a complicated text funnel like this any more. Back in 1990 Panorama had much more limited text manipulation functions. If I was to write this today it would be much simpler to just use this formula:

after(Line,"$")

Instead of

Line["$",-1][2,-1]

I do still use simple text funnels sometimes, but very rarely the more complicated ones.

Thanks Jim.

Indeed I have to assimilate the new techniques instead of relying on the old way.

Clearly an order of magnitude improvement!

Merci beaucoup.
