Leopold Toetsch: # - string_set() is gone, highly (WRT malloc) illegal reusage # of existing # string headers - and unnecessary IMHO
I specifically asked for and received permission from Dan for this. It's designed to remove the need to pass in pointers-to-pointers-to-headers in functions with string_substr-like semantics, allowing you to allocate a header *once* and reuse it instead of potentially reallocating dozens of times. --Brent Dax <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> @roles=map {"Parrot $_"} qw(embedding regexen Configure) Wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. And radio operates exactly the same way. The only difference is that there is no cat. --Albert Einstein (explaining radio)
