$O - makelist of properties or methods

[Ben Butler]

Hi Das,

Thanks for the pointers and kind welcome. It has been more than a while
since I was last here (O7.3 to $O6.01). Been doing ISP stuff and Devops
since. Am back to merge what I have learnt in rest / containers / cloud /
Linux land to work with Omnis dev in $O10.

Thanks again.

Ben
