As far as I know, the # (dump) instruction is undocumented - I originally found it by accident and it's very useful. Even better, and the one I meant to mention first, is the asterisk (*) which can be used to show a saved list in a PUTLIST format and also works with FRAME entries to show the attribute lists.

Both # and * operate from the BUILD directory window and will write to the message window.

Hope it's useful

Bruce
