+ Summary: Add Note feature needs filter on input to deal with certain characters.
+ 
+ Hi,
+ 
+ I just added a note to the docs as follows:
+ 
+ as per MikeH on the interchange-users list:
+ 
+ -- you must use strict (i.e. my $val)
+ Also, you must have that in a BEGIN block to pick it up, otherwise you will 
+ have to call the globalsub before it is defined.
+ 
+ GlobalSub <<EOR
+ sub new_filter {
+     BEGIN {
+ 	package Vend::Interpolate;
+ 	$Filter{reverse} = sub {
+ 			    my $val = shift;
+ 			    return scalar reverse $val;
+ 			    };
+     }
+ }
+ EOR
+ 
+ =====
+ Please take a look at my first attempt. The text got as far as the <<EOR.
+ 
+ I had to resubmit, changing the < into an html entity and putting the whole lot 
+ inside pre tags.
+ 
+ I think the submit needs a filter to deal with this.
+ 
+ Jonathan.
