My interpretatin of your suggestion is that there should be two levels of boundaries, one with whitespace and one with other boundary characters, and that they be treated differently. This sounds like too complicated a rule for my liking. But you are correct that it is unintuitive that e.g. ' ~ . /' is removed as a single token. A simpler rule, that will most of the time do what you propose would be to only lump together a series of _identical_ boundary token. E.g. ' ' is a single boundary, but ' ~. ./' is 6 boundaries. > > greetings, martin. > -- > cooperative communication with sTeam - caudium, pike, roxen and unix > offering: programming, training and administration - anywhere in the world > -- > pike programmer travelling and working in europe open-steam.org > unix system- bahai.or.at iaeste.(tuwien.ac|or).at > administrator (caudium|gotpike).org is.schon.org > Martin Bähr http://www.iaeste.or.at/~mbaehr/ > -- Axel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
