Krzysztof,

Thanks again for cyclone-- it's truly wonderful to have these objects
available in PD.

A few questions about prob, all of which relate to what it prints to the
standard error window.  

First, is there a way to stop prob from printing "prob's error: no state
n" every time a state with no data is reached?  I understand that this
is a handy debugging tool, but I'm generating Markov chains from
material analyzed on-the-fly and the constant error message is pretty
annoying.

Also, is there a good way to capture all of a prob's data? "Dump" prints
it to the display but if there are a lot of possible states it simply
scrolls off the screen...

Thanks again for all the help,
Greg
