Actually both :) $(shortname) is set to $(names), if a $(names) class is defined. What I desired was that, once $(shortname) is set, a class springs into life immediately. That's not the case but, again, I worked around that using Nick's trick -- I had worked around it in a different way, namely with: "has_shortname" or => { @(names) } ; but that's another story :) I like Nick's trick best.
