Re: simple problem with string handling

Hi

Another idea from Peter Dow was to have a comparison operator that'd compare by subfields, not by the entire data structure - somewhat like EVAL-CORR, it could be a BIF or something like that.

No change to behavior, just an additional way to compare.

When I get a little time, I think I'll submit this with the use cases already presented and suggestions.

Cheers
Vern

If it were an enhancement to force that undefined area to always be
blanks, it would need to be controllable via an H-spec or an EVAL
extender or something.
Or an option on the DS definition to always blank out the trailing
characters for its varying subfields, or an option on an individual
varying field or subfield to blank out the trailing characters.
