Also WHILE BEGIN REPEAT... The old FORTRAN logicaloperators even get defined, much to my horror.Everything you need to turn sweet concise C into some crawling horrormismash of BASIC and Pascal.That, Sir, is preprocessor abuse. ;-)Willard-- Willard Goosey goosey at sdc.orgSocorro, New Mexico, USAI search my heart and find Cimmeria, land of Darkness and the Night. -- R.E.
