Yes, you are quite right.  I was reading this in the info reader in
emacs (instead of in PDF which I sometimes do), and when I didn't find
what I wanted in the main page (10.6.1, I believe), I jumped directly to
the docstring for the function.  Hypertext considered harmful! ;-)

Seriously, when I look at those info pages, I think I lose track of too
much context.  I'll go back and reread the pdf and I will probably do a
lot better.

thanks again for all of your help,
