This explanation is insanely helpful! That's what I love about this mailing list.

THanks for the education :)

How do you replace a symbol with a new one?

IIRC, = with = and == with ==

$ foo == "one"
$ sh sym foo
FOO == "one"

$ foo = "two"
$ sho sym foo
FOO = "two"

$ foo == "three"
$ sho sym foo
FOO = "two"

$ sho sym foo/global
FOO == "three"

i.e. one equal sign is for the local symbol, two equal signs are for the
global symbol, and the local takes precedence over the global.

To delete a symbol: DELETE /SYMBOL

HTH, :)
