Hi everybody,
I downloaded the file "Version3.46.Notes" about the additional feature
of version 3.46. I have found several lacks in the documentation i.e.:

1) Where is the manual of new "FOG" opcode?
2) What are the bug fixes of "igoto"?
3) What are the improvements in "pvoc" and what is the new additional
optional argument?
4) In what case "endin" statement had not noticed before the fix?


Could anyone inform me and the Csounders about these questions?

Thanks and happy csounding!

There is not really a "new" optional argument in pvoc, but the "ispecw"
argument, which did not work as described in the manual has been fixed
and now seems to do what it is supposed to do.
