updated chapter(s) | 'dot' notation + missing occasions

Prompted by several things, I finally broke down and updated a couple of chapters to provide some documentation for the ability to use 'dots' for 'missing occsions'. (Note: you can get the list of the data types in MARK that suport the 'dot' covention by lookng at 'Help | Data types']. I'll let the new bits of text and such speak for themselves.

Specifically, new section 2.3 in Chapter 2, and then various worked examples in Chapter 4 (much-expanded sidebar starting on p. 25).

Text is somewhat in 'draft' state, but the basics are in place.

Evan,

Thank you for your continued efforts to update the manual. It is much appreciated! Having used the dot notation for some time now, it’s nice to see it finally documented beyond the forum—even if it is in a “draft” state. Cheers!

Eric

No worries. Has been on my 'should-do-soon-but-probably-won't-get-to-it' list for some time. In fact, I've done quite a few more tweaks to the text since the original post.
