Re: I am short of Indicators

["Ronald Nance" <RNANCE@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to see the application(s) that use that many indicators. 
I have found that a program is getting too big when the number of 
indicaors (exclusive of the dsp) are getting beyond 25. Also, in many 
cases I reuse indicators within a progaam - This would occur when I 
do throw away reads [read file, if indicator, discard indicator] and 
I have found past programmers that code something like the following:

if (value = newvalue) seton indicator
if (indicator is on) process data
the above wastes an indicator,
also, 
if the above is not performed until 100 lines later, check it 100 
lines later
