Good. But does it hold for a compiler, and for a language that should care about safety ? The tolerance towards a browser crashing (for the nth time) on a SGI station or the 567th Linux patch is not the same as towards code generated by an Ada compiler or the compiler itself. I can tell that people who have worked with high-end products (compilers, debuggers) get strange colours (RGB values on demand) when an Ada thing crashes. -- Gautier _____\\________________\_______\ http://members.xoom.com/gdemont/
