Once I got to thinking about **{}, the less and less it looked like an assertion to me. Assertions are more like "nouns" and all of *, +, ?, and **{} are "verbs" that act upon these nouns. Using the angle brackets for repetition suddenly makes rules look like "this sentence no verb". :-) -Scott -- Jonathan Scott Duff [EMAIL PROTECTED]
