....or is there no 'set(p, p)' function? If there isn't, why not? Also, a question if/once it exists. I assume it'll make a copy. If that's the case, then in this bit of code:
new P0, PerlInt new P1, PerlString set P1, P0 is P1 a PerlString or a PerlInt? I think PerlString, because otherwise there'd be no way to cast between types. Of course, this wouldn't be an issue (at least for the thing I'm working on) if there was a way to force string comparisons instead of numeric ones (hint, hint). --Brent Dax [EMAIL PROTECTED] Configure pumpking for Perl 6 "Nothing important happened today." --George III of England's diary entry for 4-Jul-1776
