Re-read the wall of text you deleted, then think again about this suggestion. If you still don't see how this suggestion is a short-circuit to ground for objections, I've written a bit more colorfully on the subject on my general blog, maybe you would care to re-read that as well. There's something in this question that is actually entangled in the difference between declarative and procedural programming, but I can't really talk with you about it until you start digging in to one or the other. -- Joel Rees Living without understanding programming is kind of like playing poker without understanding statistics. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
