>It's been that way since FPD2.0 or dBase, but it has never been recommended to use this "feature". It kind of beats the readability. If you write

2+5 is not so easy to understand.
You saying it can be used as a command in a prog as well? No I wouldn't promulgate such use either. It's just handy in command window. Strange I've never come across this before (bit like stumbling across CTRL-mouse-wheel in Word, Excel etc. does a neat zoom in and out for you)
