Adding 1 to an array

[Jim Ault]

Looks like Rev does not work this way.
Either it is a bug, docs are wrong, or it has been depricated and only works
in the older versions.

This will work, but it is not what you want to do:

function index_CreateArray someIndex, someNumber
  get someindex
     split someIndex by CR and tab
     add someNumber to someIndex[it]
     combine someIndex by CR and tab
     return someIndex
 end index_CreateArray

There must be more to the story, but why not use two lines and forget the
function call?

get "hello,1"
split it using cr and comma
