Looking through the examples, I have come across several "reserved functions" (functions defined with a _ as the last character of their name). One that I ran across (fileExists_), appears to be useful. For this one, I was able to see the source, but that does not appear to always be the case.

The questions are

  • Should I use the reserved function fileExists_ or define my own function with the exact same functionality?
  • Do these functions ever change/go away?
  • Is there a listing of the reserved functions, what they do, and how to use them?


I am sure that all of us have rewritten some of these functions and (at the time) would have prefered to utilize a built-in function.

Chalk this up to another new-user question, but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark
