I may be completely off base with this suggestion, but how about something as simple as "not" and "as" (which also has the advantage of not requiring new keywords!): use Trait { not foo1 } use Trait { foo1 as bar } Although I can see how this might be considered a touch ugly: use Trait { not foo1; foo1 as bar } -- Mike Ford, Electronic Information Services Adviser, JG125, The Headingley Library, James Graham Building, Leeds Metropolitan University, Headingley Campus, LEEDS, LS6 3QS, United Kingdom Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +44 113 812 4730 Fax: +44 113 812 3211 To view the terms under which this email is distributed, please go to http://disclaimer.leedsmet.ac.uk/email.htm -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
