Aren't these what The Damien calls coroutines? Are we getting coroutines (RFC 30, as I recall . . .)? I'm also big on seeing these. Also, thanks to everyone who answered my question. My understanding of pass by name means I understand that we can do iterators without them, and would prefer to. As is often the case, the technical information one recieves online is incorrect. I'm not looking for pass by name to be in the core, and I never was except in as much was necessarry to see strong iterator support. Again, thanks guys and gels. -Erik Is your boss reading your email? ....Probably Keep your messages private by using Lycos Mail. Sign up today at http://mail.lycos.com
