Hi Ansley,

Thank you for the illuminating discussion about the parsing of the slash.

My question is the status of the define symbol command WITHOUT equal sign. Which is the case

[Bug] It's a bug and will be an error in the future.
[Unofficial feature] It's not an official feature but will keep working in the foreseeable future.
[Official feature] It's an official feature. It's not documented but will keep working in the future.

? Even the Ferret documentation includes examples of DEFINE SYMBOL without equal sign.
