#56 Error in standarddialog.sgml Example

[Lee Peedin]

Example reads as follows:

GetSysMetrics

Queries a system metric value:

SM_CMONITORS = 80
metric = GetSysMetric(SM_CMONITORS)
say 'There are' metric 'monitors connected to this system.'

Example should read:

GetSysMetrics

Queries a system metric value:

SM_CMONITORS = 80
metric = GetSysMetrics(SM_CMONITORS)
say 'There are' metric 'monitors connected to this system.'

Good eyes Lee. Usually I try to copy the example in from working code. In this case I must have thought the code was so simple I could not go wrong. <grin></grin>

Actually it wasn't my "eyes" that caught the error. It was my "copy/paste" of the example that "directed my eyes" to look real close. :-)
