I'm working on some old code that has a long string of elsif checking
strings that come in from outside against known commands.
Seeking opinions on the desirability of using an enumerated type with 'VAL
and a case statement. The sore spot is the need for an exception handler
when the incoming string matches none of the literals in the command list.
What would YOU do? And yes, "look the other way" is a viable answer. :-)
