I'm wondering, using what I took from a past posting to this group,
would this work to print out the contents of this dictionary?
$error { exch =3D=3D ( ) print =3D=3D } forall
That would be == as the operator.
I'm puzzled why you are asking rather than just trying it?

Two reasons actually.
1) I was initially puzzled with the '$' character. I hadn't seen
anywhere that this was needed to dereference a variable before, as in
many scripting languages, and I wanted to make sure I was
understanding it correctly.
2) I did try it in my code and I get several hundred dumps of this
dictionary but I was pretty sure I wasn't calling it in a loop. It
just wasn't making sense and, as I said before, I just wanted to make
sure I understood it properly.
That's interesting, I don't know where the "3D" came from. I did a
copy paste from the posting I took it from (in case you're curious to
see the post it's a thread entitled, "Printing dictionary object
contents" from 1998; the post I quoted from is from Glenn Reid). Very
interesting, his post doesn't have "=3D=3D ..."
