My apologies. The name `Machines' coupled with a configuration that looked suspiciously like a list of states and edges must have tripped by `state-machine-ometer' and caused me to add it to the list. I was basing most of my decisions on a cursory look at the documentation (after all, there were 2200+ search results...) and not on any in-depth use (except perhaps POE, which I've looked over a couple times recently). The StateML:: stuff does sound neat though :) I'm wanting to eventually put together a gui for creating web-based wizard-like applications -- draw the circles and the lines, hang a few requirements off the edges, and you almost have an app. And with the OO stuff, the apps can be sub-classed. -- James Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, 979-862-3725 Texas A&M CIS Operating Systems Group, Unix
