Hi folks. Still using SlickEdit 18. I wasted a bit of time trying to debug a command which called filter_selection, and finally noticed in the debugger that the "Filter Selection" menu option in SlickEdit actually calls filter_command, not filter_selection. The comment for both functions is the same and neither calls the other. Judging by the problems I had, I suspect filter_selection works only with filters that are themselves SlickEdit macro language functions, while filter_command can deal with external commands (in fact maybe ONLY external commands). But that's not what the comment says on filter_selection... So just wondering if this is all just lagging comments, or whether I'm misunderstanding the right places to use them.
