It would be exceedingly useful if the algorithms for determining "connectedness" were known. We've spent a lot of time on this very task on the Windows platform, and it's sometimes important to know when you can and can't trust use a particular algorithm. -- Tim Lesher [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, July 02, 2000 10:40 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [REBOL] Random chaos Re:(2) Once upon a time [EMAIL PROTECTED] spoketh thus: > >- Open Your Mind -< > > Quoting from Holger Kruse's message (29-Jun-00 17:57:38). > > h> If connected? cannot determine whether a connection exists then it returns true. > > Odd, I'd say... Wouldn't it be better if it returned false? I'd say it should return 'none, thus 'true would mean: I'm sure to be connected 'false : I'm sure not to be connected 'none : Sorry, your on your own here Just my few cents, regards, Ingo
