TEMPLATE
WINDOW_COMMON%
TextOne of the most commonly used symbolics in windows is

$INSERT INCLUDE WINDOW_COMMON%
IF WC_XCNT% > 1 THEN
@ANS = WC_RING_PTR% : " of " : WC_XCNT%
@ANS := " Alt F Forward Alt B Backward"
END ELSE
@ANS = ""
END

It seems excessive to have to include this in the dictionary of every file
that needs it just so that it can be included in the window

To circumvent this problem put the symbolic in the dict of VOC and put a
dummy symbolic into the template where the browse message ought to appear
Once the template has been saved edit it and replace the dummy symbolic
name WITH the name of the symbolic in the dict of VOC This will now work as
required (until the window is repainted when this happens the procedure
will need to be repeated) This works because as previously mentioned in
REVMEDIA if RTP27 cannot find what it wants in @DICT it looks in the dict
of VOC By extension this should work wherever {} are used
