What you did is pretty impressive - another way is to use
JavaScript and use outputs of this patch as global variables (see
the archives of this list for examples).
Thanks. Leave it to me to do things the hard way :)
Is there a speed hit for using JavaScript?
Yes, this is an interpreted language, not compiled and the JavaScript
runtime is the Safari one, i.e. designed for web browsers, not real-
time operations. Data conversion must also be performed on input /
output. That said, unless you are using many JavaScripts or very
often (like inside Iterators), you should be ok.
Also, Is there a speed hit for encasing things in macros or using
input splitters?
