The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Dunno about "any non-blank" in MI, but I do know that MI variable names
starting with a period are NOT visible to the debugger (and that's well

And I also know that ILE RPG seems perfectly happy with @ and $, and
probably # as well, and that you can certainly use them in DDS field names.
