extracting an array of one cluster element from an array of clusters

[billko]

Is there an easier way?  Thanks!

No

Not even a "Reply hazy try again", huh?  😄

With 2017's type parsing palette it is theoretically possible to get array data and check that it has a type of "Cluster".  And script out the vi's that get arrays of each single element.  I wouldn't call that "Easier"

That is pretty much exactly what I was asking about.

Or using a VIM (2017) this would be possible, but you'd probably have to make a new VIM for each index in the cluster to pull out.  Like a "Get Element 1 in Cluster.vim" "Get Element 2 in Cluster.vim" and then that would work changing the outputs based on the cluster type wired.

Also as mentioned in the idea exchange there is an XNode that does this over on LAVA.

Hang tight.  I may have missed a "outlook hazy try again later" response.  But I stand by the NO for now.
