"Any practical programming language with structural subtyping will probably let you create and use aliases for type names (so you don't have to write the full form everywhere). However, the underlying type system will only consider the structure of the type when doing its job." What's wrong with Perl doing things that way? duck-typing with names ... sounds like a plan to me ... Rob
