Bingo. I've been wondering about this pretty much since Chain came along. Now that we have Commands, there really doesn't seem to be much reason for Actions other than backwards compatibility. So rather than have a standard Action that delegates to a chain, it seems to me that it would make more sense to base things on Chain, and have a standard Command that delegates to an Action to preserve backwards compatibilty. -- Martin Cooper --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
