note Solo <code>A[ ] B[X] C[ ] D[ ]</code> I have started typing responses only to get about half-way through them and thought, "Wow, this is a cool idea, but I have no idea if it will work." Generally I don't post that sort of message (now) because: <ul> <li>it usually doesn't work <li>it's only a cool idea to me <li>there's too many @#$!ing nodes already </ul> For instance, right now I really want to get into the [id://229640|OO-style modifiers for 'sub'] discussion, but I've been too busy researching <code>Class::</code> modules to test any code ideas, so I'm staying out. Chances are that discussion may be worn-out by the time I get back there, but that's better than extra noise right now, IMHO. My policy for right now is to respond with untested ideas only in very familiar ground, which is Win32 for me. <blockquote>-- May the Source be with you. </blockquote> 232157 232157
