No more. I don't know, if its correct. But the behavior now seems more natural to me: new P1, .PerlInt set P1, 42 new P0, .PerlUndef assign P0, P1 # LHS is PerlInt now The dest has to be morphed into the RHS type, IMHO. > Personally, I would like "=" to mean 'set', and > maybe "<-" do 'assign'. That's a true alternative and with no problems WRT backward compatibility. leo
