Dumping table names beginning with "all"

INTRODUCTION:
============

When dumping data definitions from the data administration one can
not choose the option "all" when there are tables names beginning
with "all". When typing "all" the very first table name starting with
"all" will be highlighted instead of all the available tables.

WHY YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS:
=========================

Customers may be working with i.e. medical or financial databases
in which they may have tables as "allergy" or "allowance".

PROCEDURAL APPROACH:
===================

There are a couple of 'known' issues on the subject that all
describe this problem however there are one or two work-arounds that
may come in handy for the time being.

1) One needs to rename table(s) beginning with "all" for now.
Dumping .df - the names can be original again (incl. .df's)
Keep in mind: .df trailers:#s)
Note: for DataServers it is sufficient to rename just "PROGRESS" name
in Schema-Holder.

2) Using the <F5> key (or CTRL-G sequence) will highlight and
therefore select all the available tables (incl. the ones
beginning with "all").

3) Run the program directly. RUN prodict/dump_df.p("ALL","mydb.df","")
