Follow up on previous -
Here's a quick list of what appears to be erratta in Appendix G:
function listed as aliases to themselves:
xpath_eval
xpath_eval_expression
xpath_init
xpath_new_context
As I'm still working my way through these, there may be more.. like the msql function prevously
noted.

This may just be my misunderstanding.. in either case, i'm sure that if I'm a little
confused, others might be as well.
I've been working on assembling an expression file for HomeSite.. in so doing I wanted to
create a set which highlights those functions which are "aliases"..
So, I'm working with Appendix G and noted the following:
The appendix essentailly states the "reverse" of the function documentation...
The manual indicates the chop() is an alias to rtrim(), while the appendix indicates the reverse,
naming chop() the "master function".. and rtrim() the alias...???
Also, on a different note -
msql_affected_rows is labeled as as alias of itself?
how can a function be an alias of itself?
Can someone please clarify Appendix G?
from the manual on chop:
This function is an alias of rtrim().
Whil Appendix G indicates that chop() is the master function?
This is repeated with most functions listed in G.
Thanks, in advance for the input.
