Hi,
sorry, I answered to both mails, but directly instead of addressing the
list.
Case closed, it worked for me.
Thank you. :-)

Hi again,
shame on me. You would not believe, how long I searched for this little
gem but somehow I did not find and also I did not see it until now in
the docpage you just posted.
I was always irritated not to find anything, for this felt not as an
unusual quest.
Exactly what I searched for, so, thank you. :-)
