For PerlArrays, they should all be scalars, if scalars counts PerlScalar (PerlInt, PerlNum, et al) and PerlRef (or however we will handle references). Of course, we may autoderefence so that it looks like a PerlArray holds PerlArray, but I believe it will still be restricted to scalar containership. > > Simon -- Bryan C. Warnock [EMAIL PROTECTED]
