  Automatic unenumeration of data on-disk

  Posted by erichards on April 1, 2025 at 9:56 am

  When you pass a table over IPC, sym values are automatically un-enumerated. Is there any way of triggering this within a single q session?

  I’m aware that you can call get to un-enumerate explicitly, and use type each flip to identify such columns dynamically, but this is trickier when you have nested structures that contain syms e.g. a column where each cell is a list of syms.

  Thanks

  -9! -8! <table>

  seems to do the trick. Much slower than calling get, however, but at least it works for all structures.
