The difference is that before it would _never_ happen behind one's back, since we had to import from std:: explicitly. And the suggestion of not using the same signatures as in STL function looks a bit like a joke. Shall I keep a printout of the standard handy just in case I want to create a new function and have to check its name? JMarc
