Don't they scream "inbred" to you? xanthian, who would mildly suggest that ideas that have been worked out and proven in other programming language environments are at this point _much_ more important to Ada's future as a viable programming language, than merely rechurning stuff already known to work here. Again, if you don't provide in Ada the modern functionalities the students learn to value in school, they will turn away to the tools that do. -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG
