Hi.
I have a problem/or rather a request for information on an old
'undocumented feature' in WPS-PLUS.
It used to be possible to give a command in the control-blocks, an
thereby having WPS look into the .PRA-file for a command with same
name, and thereby getting the sequence printed. It was even possible to
have this sequence replaced by a external file, o that the
.PRA-fileentry really pointed to a larger file outside the .PRA-file,
this allowed for expanding the area for esc-sequences.
Does anybody recall this feature.??

Yes and no:

I thought that one was documented....
.0� It was even possible to

I didn't think that this WAS possible.... but it is now with WPS-PLUS
V4.
Try the WPS-PLUS conference for how to do it..., but there is a
documented way to point a control block at a PRA entry that then points
at a file which is included at print time.
