Hi Bill--
...I tried
'abc' next: 5
and got 'abc' vs. an exception. Does Flow (so far, I can't load it in my 3.2 image and haven't had time to try it in a clean image) or some other project address this issue?
Flow does; it makes the distinction via >>next: (which raises an exception on exhaustion) and >>nextAvailable: (which answers as many of the requested number of elements as are available).
-C
p.s. I'm assuming you meant something like ('abc' stream next: 5) ?
p.s.s.
The current release of Flow takes the form of a single file-in, so it's pretty quick to install. I'd also appreciate any stacks you care to send, from your attempt to install in your working image. Thanks!
