I've thought about your objection, but I don't like your "attempt to" wording, which suggests to me that an attempt must be made and fail, rather than allowing a test to be made in advance. I'm inclined not to make a change, then. -- John Cowan <[email protected]> http://www.ccil.org/~cowan One time I called in to the central system and started working on a big thick 'sed' and 'awk' heavy duty data bashing script. One of the geologists came by, looked over my shoulder and said 'Oh, that happens to me too. Try hanging up and phoning in again.' --Beverly Erlebacher _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
