I noticed that arrget and arrset seem to be absent from ATS, though there  
is an implementation provided at

[http://www.ats-lang.org/DOCUMENT/INTPROGINATS/HTML/x3427.html](http://www.ats-lang.org/DOCUMENT/INTPROGINATS/HTML/x3427.html)

Just curious if that implementation of arrget is still the preferred way to  
go for starting out with linear types and arrays?

Sorry, I noticed the implemented function array\_ptr\_get\_elt\_at which has  
the same interface (essentially).
