Word and Distance Queries of Parameters
Word parameters can be entered and the system will maintain this so the value will always be displayed as a word and cannot be misused accidentally in numerical expressions and will always be reported as a word. This makes the pseudo attribute WDESP redundant.
DESP num 5 TOS
Q DESP[5] WDESP[5] both return TOS
Similarly DDESP which returns a parameter as a distance in current working units is also redundant as unit qualified distance parameters will always be returned in current working units by DESP attribute itself. DDESP will still return numeric parameters as distances and as if they were stored in mm; DESP will not do this.
