Believe me, I have had the same feeling with file-names as arguments to in and out

It's the inconsistency of it.

in
Data StructureSubFile NameFile Handle
out[Absent]WorksWorksWorksWorks
Undefined ScalarWorksWorksRun-time errorRun-time error
File NameWorksWorksInstructs the programmerRun-time error
File HandleWorksWorksRun-time errorRun-time error

The instruction to the programmer is doubly weird because it could simply do what it would do if the programmer used the suggested code.

    Thanks for this trigger!

    The new strict_eol made it possible to vercome all the old blockers, so the next release will have "Works" in all cells \o/

    Still working on tests and documentation.

    Github is up to date, so you can test and comment :)

    Let that be my new-year gift.


    Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
