Ok, universal acclaim in both public and private mail is for:
case $foo in
optinon )
as opposed to:
case $foo in
option )
so I'll modify that one. It actually improves readability in some cases,
although the latter is a matter of personal style. I would really prefer to
stick with option ) vs. option) though, but if it becomes a show-stopper I
can compromise on that one too. All I ask is that people give it a chance
first. :)
Keep those cards and letters coming,
Doug
