Subject: Re: CALC Records

Such changes to the CALC record routines would impact things other than the
CALC records !  The handy routines "postfix" and "calcPerform" have been used
by other record types (at least two that I know of). So to say that such changes
could be implemented and the known effects minimized by a script that changes
CALC expressions in CALC records is quite dangerous.

If the problem is that the string reserved for the calculation is too short,
lets fix that (but since that is a channel access limitation, it will have to
wait until R4). If the problem is that you don't like the way the CALC is
specified, fix that with a different record type (e.g. "CCALC") and NEW 
routines.
