5) Way back, around 2004 I think it was, Tim Mooney helped me with a with a customization of the postfix and calcPerform routines that allowed expressions like MAX(A,B,C), which are much more compact than MAX(A,MAX(B,C)). These never made it into base because they broke expressions like A?B, whichÂIÂnever usedÂbecause they leave unpredictable numbers of items on the stack, but which turn out to be common in some applications. If the CALC record is reworked, canÂI suggest that this issue be re-examined at the same time?

A different solution for MAX(...) is part of 3.14.10 (released Oct 2008).
