I agree these commands should be revised and adapted to the new syntax. They were very useful in their time, e.g. in matrix calculus - I used them a lot for multivariate statistical analyses several years ago. But now Constantina Spanoude provides her "Matrix ReCoded" library (http://newsletters.livecode.com/october/issue158/newsletter2.php) which seems quite powerful (I didn't test it but I will as soon as I have time for it).
