Should actually be 'pretty-printing', rather that 'pretty-print'. This is a commonly used expression whse precise meaning depends on the context and implementation I just ran a Google search for "pretty-printing" and came up with references to pretty-printing in Lisp, C, XML, and many other. See for example http://www-inf.enst.fr/~demaille/a2ps/doc-4.12/a2ps_7.html and http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/html-tidy/1999OctDec/0081.html Pam -- Linux Step by Step (UK mirror): http://www.pam.roberts.btinternet.co.uk/sxs/
