RE: [WDSCI-L] Defining a variable on the fly.

Why the heck does WDSC take so long.  When I fill in the wizard and click
finish it takes several minutes WDSC to finish adding the new D-spec.

Saw this tip in the RPG list and I thought I'd cross post it.  It's pretty 
good.

There's a D-spec wizard that will let you create a D spec on the fly
without leaving the spot where you want to use it.

1. At your current spot in the code type
       if somenewvariable > whatever
2. Put somenewvariable in your cut-and-paste buffer
3. Right click and select New > D-specification
4. Fill in the wizard fields
5. When you hit Finish, you're still where you typed the "if" statement
6. Use ALT-Q to have a peek at the new D spec if you want, and use ALT-Q
to return to your code
