New Data Table() function as alias for New Table()

What inspired this wish list request? 

When making a new data table I frequently use code dt = new data table() but this throws an error since only new table() works.  Tables are frequently called data tables in documentation and other functions and would be good to support new data table() as an alias for new table().

 

What is the improvement you would like to see? 

Please make a function "New Data Table()" as alias for "New Table()"

 

Why is this idea important? 

Would remove a frequent error when coding in JSL.

 

I am using JMP 16.2
