Thanks for the extensive reply. I really want a two-dimensional array, not a
one-dimensional array of vectors, like colors or positions. I got the structure
for the initialization from the documentation section 3.2.1.8.2:

#declare Digits =
array[4][10] {
  {7,6,7,0,2,1,6,5,5,0},
  {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0},
  {0,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1},
  {1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5}
  }

So that shows 4 rows of 10 columns, which is like the way I want it.

BTW, the problem was that I forgot the #declare to start the assignment. (It's
rather 1970s IMO, when you had to write "LET A = 1" in BASIC. Hope version 4
gets rid of it.
