For you OCTTOOLS experts, from a beginner:  BDNET questions please !

1) is there something like BDSYN's "SYNONYM" function in BDNET to create new
   named (and local) bundles by picking and choosing bits from other
   bundles (bit vectors), for example:

      NEW_INTERNAL_SIGNAL<4:0> = IN_A<2> & IN_B<2> & IN_B<2> & LOCAL<3:2>;

  ...or something like this ?  I hope the answer is not:
   
    a) I have to keep track of all individual bits myself in terms of their
       ultimate source or destination names:
         (in that case the problem still occurs if I want to tie a primary
          input directly to a primary output, doesn't it ?)

       or

    b) actually wire them through a dummy bdsyn module that does the
       bit-gathering for me and passes out my new bit vector...

2) does more complete BDNET documentation exist (more than the man pages
   distributed with OCTTOOLS) ?

3) using the scmos standard cells:  anything resembling a gated transparent
   latch, or do I have to wire my own together ??

PS I couldn't get BDSYN's "SYNONYM" (sic) function to work either...

Thanks! Glenn J.
