Extended support for result file name and sequence name in variable 
path 
Variable paths with result file name and sequence name (in brackets) was previously 
supported only for the plot expression feature. Now this is supported also for the built-in 
functions 
createPlot,  plot, and signalOperatorValue. Commands created when 
adding signal operators in the GUI now also generate this longer path alternative. 
The above commands also support the shorter path alternative. An example of long and 
short path alternatives is: 
"CoupledClutches[end].J1.w" and "J1.w". 
(For the longer name, the sequence name 
end  and  end-1  corresponds to the latest and 
second latest result files; the absolute sequence number can be used in other cases. The 
shorter name refers to the latest result file.)
