Superseded / Replacement Commands

As we expand the capability of the PNA, we will continue to develop new commands. Sometimes, a command is replaced with a new command that delivers more capability. The old (superseded) command will continue to work as usual, but we recommend using the new (replacement) command in new code that you develop.

In very few cases, commands become obsolete and no longer work as before. Obsolete commands will likely NOT have a replacement.
