Hmmm . . . as Alex said, it's Intellisense, but since I'm not using the m. prefix much these days, I don't think I've seen that. That is nice, though I don't think I'd need it that much. If I'm typing vars into the command window, I don't use m. and it doesn't work without using m. (so maybe that's a reason to use m.).

Thanks.

>In the command window type m.x=5, enter and then type ?m.x=5. Two boxes should open, one showing 'X' and the other showing the value of x. As you add other m. variables the command window will keep up with them all. I don't know what value this feature is but it sure is neat.
