Perl can be readable or obfuscated. The language lets you do either, and that's a good thing. (Trust me, I use VHDL daily and it's very verbose; sometimes I like nice terse Perl.) The language is not at fault, the programmers who use it badly are. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
