Will Synopsis support abstract DATA types in the future? I might be missing something, but I don't see that capablity as I peruse the helpfile.

Right now I use multiple arrays of different types syncronized with each other, since I can't have an array of records or a construct if that term is better.

Thanks.

Yes, aggregate data types, or records will be definable for all data containers such as linked lists, arrays, stacks, variables, etc.
This will help to simplify data maintenance, synchronization and usage.
To begin with, the basic data types integer, float and string will be recombinable as user defined records and there may also be other data types for which records make sense.

I look forward to the capablity. It will simplify things for sure, but development with Synopsis is so blazing fast, that I spend less time coding mulitple arrays than I would have coding arrays of an aggregate data type using a syntax based tool.

Thanks..
