Insert DAT

Summary

The Insert DAT allows you to insert a row or column into an existing table.

You can add strings that will be put in the new cells, space separated. If you want a cell to include spaces, in the Contents parameter put the cell contents in quotes: cell1 'cell 2' cell3. Or a list in the parameter expression: ['cell1', 'cell 2']

If the input DAT is not a table, it will be converted to a table.

An Operator Family that manipulates text strings: multi-line text or tables. Multi-line text is often a command Script, but can be any multi-line text. Tables are rows and columns of cells, each containing a text string.

The generic thing that holds an Operator, and includes Flags (display, bypass, lock, render, immune) and its position/size in the network. Whether you "lay down an Operator" or "lay down an Node", you're doing the same thing.
