I know you've explained this as best you can in an email, but I, for one,
can't see the total outcome...what it's for.

Anyway, I'm going to send you to the dictionary to look at all the offset
stuff.

Offset functions are very fast if you can use them. Maybe an itemOffset. If
you set up your matrix, you can develop a multidimensional array function
which in turn uses offset functions to query your data for matches, you'll
have it.

Or you could use them to match chunk expressions

How to arrange and assemble it? I dunno, I can't really see what it's used
for, our overview is limited.

Ken N.
