Now, I only spent 2 minutes on this... :-) but wouldn't the code (from INPUT
of course!) do what you are asking for?
@wuk* If: @fd="a"
Then: goto WUKA
If: @fd="b"
Then: goto WUKB
If: @fd="c"
Then: goto WUKC
Etc., etc., etc.

This is a little off this thread, but who cares.
On the apps where I push an pull rows up and down with @wuk... I often use
arrays of 2 char dummies on the screen for the different rows/files.
Generraly, they look like:
*aa *ba *ca
*ab *bb *cb
*ac *bc *cc
... ... ...
*aj *bj *cj
Everyone knows this routine and probably uses this sort of thing all the
time.
What would be so good is if there were a way to wildcard each group of two
letter variables for the @wuk feature.
It would be nice to be able to write:
@wukA* if:
then: blah blah
@wukB*
In fact, this might even be nice for at when leafving/entering as well, but
not so much perhaps.
In any case. Is this something that could be accomplished easily the way you
now handle labels and such. I don't see why not really, but of course,
that's why I'm asking. :-)
