IMHO I thought this as well, but then I realised how much this encourages reuse. If you stick all your functionality into librarys in the first place it makes it much more likely that you'll end up reusing the code. Plus it makes it easier to seperate user interface from implementation. YMMV. - Aidan -- Gimme money, gimme sex, gimme UNIX and root access. http://www.skinner.demon.co.uk/aidan/
