Can you be more specific? Of course, there can be something which
I overlooked.

Just look at the quoting from my previous post... what's there?
- something about TCL
- 2 pairs (4 values each) mentioned
My understanding is, that TCL uses just 2 pairs (3 values each) for
"binary-sort" variables (and not "niet", "nein", "off"...) - does it not?
Additional "f" / "t" can be added for PHP. So: no worries... ;)
