I did really well - I got two typos into a very short example ...  the description shoudl have said lineDel, not itemDel, and it should have been set to ":", not ";"

My fault for taking the *real* example out of the demo app, and cutting it down while typing the email.

itemDel and lineDel are different, and have the same meanings as you'd expect in the context of LC.

i.e. a dataset consists of a number of *line*s, each line contains a number of *item*s which are the [optionally X] and Y values.

So the example has one Y value per line, and should be

1a. same thing, using the lineDel feature.

put ":" into sA["lineDel"]
put "1:2:4:8:16:15:14:13:12:22:17:15" into temp
put temp into sA["data"][1]["values"]

gmMakeGraph the long id of grp "mycanvas", sA

P.S. of course, if we had something like "heredoc" that perhaps wouldn't have happened - I would have used the more natural way to define a multi-line constant value :-)

Are itemDel and lineDel synonyms? Or is one of those a typo?
